Production Truck: PTZ in the Live desk

PTZ in the Live desk

Choose Camera PTZ in the Live desk controls, or PTZ in the header. The controls occupy the lower workspace while Preview, Program, transitions and broadcast/recording transport remain visible and usable. Select its camera card explicitly and Connect controls, then use the on-screen hold/drag pad, zoom buttons or USB/Xbox controller. Camera changes never follow preview/program cuts automatically. The selected control camera is shown independently; verify it against your monitor before moving. Use the Cameras & scenes tab to cue a camera before opening PTZ if necessary.

Changing Live desk tabs stops the current movement and retains the session; USB remains available across Live desk tabs after centering/releasing the hold button. Leaving Live desk, focus loss or unavailable input pauses motion while retaining the connection and USB preference. Return to Live desk with the sticks centered and the hold button released to rearm; no repeated Connect/Enable is needed. STOP explicitly disables USB movement. Disconnect releases the NDI receiver. Expanding controller mapping may scroll within the lower workspace on smaller screens. Native OBS projector windows do not contain the web app controls: use the Truck Live desk and a separate display for full-motion monitoring. No additional OBS/plugin/runtime dependency is installed.
