## What is PTZ?

PTZ-P is the production tool built for live event camera operators. Map your audience to seats, assign PTZ preset numbers, and recall shots instantly — all from your iPhone or iPad.
It is a simple focused tool for live production teams who run PTZ cameras to know exactly the preset status for each seat in your auditorium.


KEY FEATURES

Auditorium Map
Visually place people in your venue layout. Color-coded chairs show who's seated, which presets are ready, and who still needs to be shot.

Camera Preset Management
Manage multiple PTZ cameras with independent preset number sequences. Camera 1 shares a namespace with your people list so numbers never collide. Add as many cameras as you need.

Live Session Collaboration
Start a session and your whole tech team joins over your local network. Assign roles (Host, Backup, Director, Tech), broadcast program updates, and chat in real time — no internet required.

Live Camera Preview
See a live feed from your PTZ cameras directly inside the app. Auto-detects RTSP and snapshot streams. Supports multiple cameras with a tab switcher.

Program Details
Build a complete service order — song names, speaker names, announcements. Broadcast the program to your whole team the moment it updates.

Preset Status Tracking
Orange = not yet shot. Green = ready. Presets auto-reset each morning so your slate is clean before every service.

Custom Layouts
Design your venue from scratch. Add sections, resize grids, reorder rooms. Supports unlimited auxiliary rooms.

Profiles
Save complete setup snapshots as named profiles. Restore any past configuration in one tap — perfect for recurring events or multiple venues.

Import & Export
Back up your full setup as a .ptzsetup file. Share over AirDrop or Messages. Import on any device to restore everything instantly.

Designed for Real Production Environments
Dark interface built for low-light environments. Works entirely on-device — no account, no internet, no subscription required. Your data stays on your phone.

Built for churches, theaters, conference centers, and any venue that needs reliable, fast PTZ recall.

### 5/5 — This app is great!

*2026-03-20*

I love this app. I have been doing volunteer work with pan tilt zoom cameras for well over 10 years now at our weekly meetings. I wanted to be able to easily track my presets in an auditorium which has over 100 seats. In the past I used spreadsheets that worked ok, but this app makes it so much easier to locate presets by visually seeing a map of the seats, the name of the person, and their preset. Bravo to the developer. This app makes my volunteer assignments easier.

• New Arrange Layout editor for dragging blocks and markers into place

Preset list

Team chat is now text-only.

### 2.1.0 — 2026-05-08

In this build we addressed some bugs that were causing the app to crash.

We added several feature to the chat section to make session finding easier and added video message capability to the chat window. We also added a 'Go live' feature that enables users with permission to 'Go live' to turn on their camera and be visible to other users connected to the session. 

Another feature we added is that the chat messages are now visible from the program section as well so the user does not need to change into the chat section to see the messages as they come through. Now the user can concentrate on the program and still be informed.

### 2.0.0 — 2026-04-10

PTZ camera paring and control via visca protocols and sessions that allow multiple people to share a program outline and tailored permissions for use.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-03-20

No release notes.
