I have a setup with three freed ptz cams on one PC with broadcast license.
I detected the three origins with the ArUco marker.
In the Studio everything looks fine.
In the virtual world the position doesn't match; a chair is for every cam in a different place in the virtual world.
My questio is: Do I have to do this in the camera calibrator for every cam?
Currently I am using one profile for all cams.
Thank you and best regards

Hi Zeno,
You need to perform camera calibration for every camera individually. Even if all the cameras are the same model, there can be slight variations among them.
The Detect Origin feature determines the position of the camera in relation to the ArUco marker's position. This feature is not related to the camera calibration profile. Camera calibration focuses on the camera's parameters, while determining origin positions is more about your studio's environment, such as the relation between your different cameras' positions.
When you use the Detect Origin feature with an ArUco marker for each camera, it should effectively position all cameras relative to each other. Ensure that the ArUco marker stays stationary, so place it where each PTZ camera can see it.
This works even without a camera calibration profile, though it might slightly impact the accuracy of the ArUco position detection.
Warmest regards,
