Hey Mark,

Thanks for this.
I'm guessing it doesn't work with the default LitePlacer cameras, does it? The options have always been minimal for them and it doesn't seem to have changed.

The Liteplacer camera is not the best choice because of it's automatic exposure that cannot be switched off. It is hard to tune stable pipelines if the exposure is constantly changing (and lagging behind).

Other than that: Why not? Is it not working?

Note: the settings are on a separate White Balance tab, just in case you expected them among the Device Settings sliders:
