Adding new hardware – Generic camera
With the generic video driver, you can use cameras that are not integrated in the
SeeTec software.
The functionality is limited to displaying and recording the live image. The video
parameters must be configured directly on the camera, e.g. resolution and frame
rate.
SeeTec does not give any warranty for trouble-free operation of cameras connected
via the generic video driver.
