Dear all,
I would like to be able to  set exposure times or tracking parameters of individual cameras using python scripts but I can't find a way to set the urls of the camera using the launch .toml file. Right now the urls of the cameras seem to be randomly chosen by Braid.

In the past, when flydra2 was still partially using ros, it was possible to set the camera urls 
using the camnode arg http-server-addr, but this argument is not recognized as a configuration parameters if added in the braid launch toml file.

Is there a way to set these urls at the moment? Or is it possible to get the randomly choosen urls from Braid? I searched in the source code but couldn't find anything.

Best,

Antoine

Dear Antoine,

Can you read this ticket https://github.com/strawlab/strand-braid/issues/11 ? It outlines a solution to most of the issues you are facing. That said, I would like to implement the solution I suggested there (specifically in this comment https://github.com/strawlab/strand-braid/issues/11#issuecomment-979332919).
