Dewarping questions

Postby wgmcg » Wed Jul 01, 2020 4:46 am

I just bought a xeoma licences a couple of weeks ago. I'm fairly happy with it but planned to use it with a couple of 180 degree fisheye cams, which just arrived today. I watched a video on using the dewarping with ptz controls on youtube, but I'm unable to get my setup to work the same way. I have several questions.

First, in the youtube video, the PTZ button seems to be available in the bottom tray to pan around the image. I'm not offered the PTZ button for my fisheye camera. How do I get it?

Secondly, I'm unclear what module is supposed to do the dewarping. I've added the "Fisheye dewarping" module to my camera chain, but the dewarping doesn't work until I check "enable fisheye dwarping" in the Preview and Archive module. Why 2 places? Which should I use?

Hello,

Thanks for having chosen Xeoma!

>First, in the youtube video, the PTZ button seems to be available in the bottom tray to pan around the image. I'm not offered the PTZ button for my fisheye camera.

Please make sure that your camera was found as PTZ. You can specify PTZ port (usually, it's the same as Onvif port) when you use '+' - Search by ip/password
Also, you can specify PTZ port in 'Universal camera' module's settings and test PTZ
Or you can choose different preview URL in 'Universal camera' to check if PTZ is provided

All ports (PTZ/Onvif) can be checked in camera's admin page in browser (http://IP_ADDRESS:PORT).

>Secondly, I'm unclear what module is supposed to do the dewarping. I've added the "Fisheye dewarping" module to my camera chain,

Which version of Xeoma do you use? You can use 'Fisheye dewarping' module in Xeoma and adjust settings there, as well as you can tick 'Enable fisheye dewarping' option in 'Preview and archive' module to make sure that necessary image is recorded into archive the way you need it.
