Galicaster Plugin Cameracontrol
===============================

This is a plugin for Galicaster that allows to control a remote camera from Galicaster GUI.

Right now, the plugin works with the following cameras:

- Sony:
- EVI-H100S/100V cameras, using an implementation of VISCA protocol in python.
- Panasonic:
- AW-HE50
- AW-HE120
- AW-HE60
- AW-HE130
- AW-HE40
- AW-HE65
- AW-HE70
- AW-UE7

Installation
------------

This plugin can be installed as a deb package or through pip installer:
- To generate deb package
In repository root folder execute ``sudo py2deb -r pathtorepo .``

-r pathtorepo path to store deb files

This will create the plugin deb package and debs for dependences. By default packages are stored in /tmp folder.

- To install with pip
In the repository root folder execute ``sudo pip install`` or execute ``python setup.py sdist`` to generate a .tar package installable from pip

Configuration examples
----------------------

Sony EVI-H100S/100V
-------------------

Galicaster controls the camera using the serial port, so we need to add the user galicaster to the group dialout, as follows (otherwise galicaster would need root privileges):

``sudo usermod -a -G dialout galicaster``

The following lines must also be added to the ``conf.ini`` file so that the plugin runs properly:
::
[plugins]
cameracontrol = True

[cameracontrol]
path = /dev/ttyUSB0
zoom_levels = 7
max_speed_pan_tilt = 0x18
camera = sony_evi_h100s_100v

Panasonic AW-HE50, AW-HE120, AW-HE60, AW-HE130, AW-HE40, AW-HE65, AW-HE70, AW-UE70
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Add to the ``conf.ini``:
::
[plugins]
cameracontrol = True

[cameracontrol]
path = 192.168.0.10
zoom_levels = 49
max_speed_pan_tilt = 49
camera = panasonic_aw_he40
