Hi, got an idea for a project - but before I got hammering away at it... is there a way to have Opus 6.0 Pro show CCTV camera inputs? - not a web cam.. but CCTV. ( obviously Id need to use a video capture card )..

Reason Im asking is that I want to design a project that will allow me to recieve video from my wireless video cam ( which is mounted on my RC aircraft ) and from the wirleess RECIEVER, - input the signal via video capture into an OPUS created interface. CAN Opus do this?

Also Id like to try streaming a picture from a remote webcam over the internet or network as well...* but thats anothr project )
Thanks in advance fellas. - cheers!

Did you have any joy with this Rick? My son has a similar set up on his remote control car and it would be good to have real time capture.

Its pretty easy to have a set up with a wireless cam on a car and reciever plugged into a laptop the feed is in real time and a lot of fun.

As for the interface portion of the project, Im still waiting for the pannel of experts to give me some feedback on the ability to do this.

Your son might find it interesting to not that there is a set-up ( for cam ) out there for aircraft that also allows you to use a set of "glasses" directly from the reciever unit that allows the user to loook up down, left and right in real time as the cam is on a gimble - so as the user turns or tilts their head, the cam will follow. ( its like you are acrually strapped INTO the cockpit!.....now THAT would be pretty damned AWSOME if used in a car setup instead of an aircraft. its like " virtual-realtime driving " - and a frightening thought....now were getting close to the technology thats used by the military to control UAV's. or in your case, ground assault vehicals. - and no, its NOT too expensive either.
You can see this stuff on Youtube.

cheers mate..!
