OBS has the ability to connect to multiple IP-connected cameras on your LAN (Local Area Network). This tutorial will focus on connecting with PTZOptics cameras using RTSP but you can use NDI cameras as well. IP-connected RTSP cameras do not show up properly with the current version of the OBS multiview feature. Therefore, you can build a custom scene with multiple IP-connected cameras inside of OBS to view them simultaneously. First of all, you will need to connect your IP cameras to the network. PTZOptics cameras feature PoE (Power Over Ethernet) so you may already have your PTZOptics cameras connected to your local area network. Each camera will need a unique IP address, and we highly recommend that you set a static IP address. It’s a best practice to manage multiple IP-connected cameras with sequential IP addresses in a list. In our example, we show that our studio has 8 IP-connected cameras with sequential IP addresses starting at 192.168.1.60. To organize these IP-connected cameras there is a shared Google Sheet which information such as camera model, camera name, IP address, and location for easy access. Pro Tip...
