Domoticz with PTZ cameras

Post by stuiow »

Hi all.

Does anyone know if there is a camera (or even the function within Domoticz) that will allow you to setup PTZ points? Then when an action (for example, door bell pushed) the camera is sent to that point/location and starts recording or takes shots for a period of time?

I have a cheap outdoor PTZ that is a bit basic and would like to upgrade it, but unsure what to go for.
Cheers,

Stuart

There is no native support for PTZ, it's also not easy to build since every Chinese factory has a sort of own standard. (Except if you use ONVIF but this isn't always implemented correctly)
I use the selector switch for this purpose and added the different preset to the switch, using a http command to set the camera to the preset.

Probably easier to get multiple cheaper I cameras then.
