This is my first question on this forum. It might be a beginner question, but I’m not sure. I want to control the camera on my network using a separate window COMP. I have aligned my custom parameters and the image next to each other, but I’m unable to connect to the camera and control it through that window instead of my content. I’m using cameraViewport.
Any help would be most appreciated.
I’m trying to achieve what Roy and Tim Gerritsen demonstrated in their talk: https://youtu.be/ZIdDTQB2PIg?t=1170
the cameraViewport component itself is only a Camera COMP, so to display it’s output and control it from the output of a Window COMP, you will have to create a Container COMP and reference it in the cameraViewport’s “Panel COMP” parameter. Now also create a Render TOP and reference it in the cameraViewport’s “Render TOP” parameter as well as use that rendered texture in the Container COMP’s “Background TOP” parameter.
To make use of middle and right mouse button as well, enable the “Middle” and “Right” Toggle of the “Mouse UV Buttons” parameter of the Container COMP.
