Default Tracks Who Live Stream Video

Hi All

I am looking for some ideas on what sort of camera is best to use for Live Video streaming of our Indoor off road track. Currently we are using a Gopro 10 as a webcam and recording onto the track PC. However that is not a permanent solution and would like something we could hard mount and have on 24\7 and is bank account friendly (Less than a couple of Hundred $$$). If the Budget stretches enough something with Pan Tilt Zoom function would be great.

What is being used out there in the RC community?

Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

We use a Hero 2018 flashed with the Hero 5 Black firmware for SuperView, via HDMI capture. I've tried using a GoPro 10 webcam mode, and it's junk. No audio support, and extremely unreliable. We're struggling with the field of view, do you have any requirements around that?

Here's our latest attempt:


Full screen camera is the Hero 2018. The insert camera is the 10. It kept having ghosting/stuttering corruption issues all day.

Thanks all for the replies so far.

Here is what we have come up with from the Hero 10. Its not bad. But it is not a permanent solution. Ideally we want something that can be fixed in place and be active 24\7 and when an event is being run we can record the footage.


Security cameras have been mentioned. If anyone has experience and had good results from using a Security camera im interested to hear from you.

Thanks

You'll need some kind of special software interface to be able to capture the security camera for the stream when racing, while also allowing it to be active 24/7. I'd be interested in what you come up with.
