How to set the correct camera to VAOC?
I’m adding a nozzle camera to V-Core 4.
Connecting it and rebooting I get from crowsnest.log:
[11/16/24 09:29:01] crowsnest: /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-3DO_3DO_NOZZLE_CAMERA_V2_3DO-video-index0 -> /dev/video0
and [11/16/24 09:29:01] crowsnest: /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-3DO_Rat_Rig_VAOC_Camera_3DO-video-index0 -> /dev/video2
So in my crowsnest.cfg the first camera is the nozzle camera and will be used for VAOC procedure.
Is it safe to switch /dev/video0 and /dev/video2 in crowsnest.conf or maybe on sometimes will be listed in a different order and is better to specify /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-3DO_Rat_Rig_VAOC_Camera_3DO-video-index0?

You should not be using /dev/video0 for VAOC, you should be using /dev/RatOS/rr-vaoc-camera that way it'll keep working regardless of other devices.
There's nothing "unsafe" about changing the paths though 🙂
VAOC will work as long as it's configured for port 8080, with camera-streamer....
