  Sorry for delay.
  Thanks for the suggestion. we are going to support some joysticks.
  For now you can setup presets and you hot keys for those.

  To expand on this: Some VMS systems also use the mouse (click and drag on the video window) as an analog type PTZ control.

  Instead of the camera suddenly moving, you can gradually drag the mouse (when in PTZ mode) around the window, to change the speed and direction of the camera. This gives you the nice fine control people are used to with the old analog serial joysticks, but with modern IP based VMS systems.

  So is there currently an option to use a joystick to control PTZ cameras in 2.3. If not, when might this feature be available. I understand that you can always do the control with a mouse, but nothing beats tactile controls.

  Is there any forecast on when will Joysticks be supported?

   

  Will the control be limited to some custom integration cameras (like Absolute Move functions) or for any PTZ cameras that Nx can control?

  Hi,

  I realize this is an old question - but those features are now part of Nx Witness. Check out the latest version if you haven't yet.
