GOOD TO KNOW

A few useful answers.

Do I need OBS?

No. Camera controls and the direct USB preview work without OBS. If you use OBS for recording or streaming, OBS Virtual Camera is an optional preview source. Osmo Webcam does not record or stream video.

Does it need Bluetooth or a cloud account?

No Bluetooth connection or app account is required for USB controls or preview. Presets and credentials stay in your macOS user account. Update checks use GitHub.

What should I know before using it?

Some motion features remain experimental. Review clearance for your fixed setup and keep tracking off. Camera readback and completed commands do not establish physical arrival or immediate motor stop. Press Escape in the app to cancel further motion scheduling. A Stream Deck Stop action is optional; held controls stop scheduling on release. A finite command already accepted by the camera may finish.

Can it control DJI ActiveTrack?

No. Built-in ActiveTrack and battery telemetry are not included in this release. Keep tracking off while using camera controls.

Where can I report a problem?

Use the public issue tracker. Include versions and the visible error code. Keep tokens, device identifiers and private recordings out of reports. See support for the details to include.
