Opening hours or descriptions of historical sights being watched by your PTZ IP cam? You can even do all that with CamOverlay App. Supported formats are JPEG, PNG and animated GIF.

Conference

Insert subtitles to speakers of videoconferences, lectures and studio broadcasts. Pre-set any number of subtitles for all participants and insert them to the actual picture by a single click. Subtitles can be created in service Custom Graphics and controlled via the Control room.

Picture in Picture

Insert the picture from another camera on the same network or even from your web camera into your live stream. A fast solution for sports broadcasting, where the current score on the scoreboard can be inserted into the live stream. Or, for example, you can add technical information to a stream of your machine in the factory hall. Cameras with Artpec-6/7 processor support up to 25fps for PiP.

Screen Sharing as PiP

Share your screen, application window, or browser tab as a PiP in the video feed. Great for schools, webinars, presentations, churches, live events, and anyone who wants to present content from their computer. This service only works when connected via HTTPS. For HTTPS use e.g. our CamStreamer Cloud service, install the certificate or contact us at support@camstreamer.com.

Dewarping of PiP

Would you like to capture the match and scoreboard simultaneously using only one camera? You can create a picture-in-picture effect by cutting out the scoreboard view from the main screen. Additionally, if your camera angle causes any distortion, our Dewarping function can digitally straighten the image.

Before purchasing, please check compatibility with your camera in the download section.
