Renaming device OAK SOM

chandrian

Hello,

Is it possible to rename the device so that it shows up on all computers (not just current registry)

Thanks,
Aaron

Hi chandrian ,
Which name do you think - MxID? If so, then no you can't change it.
Thanks, Erik

Thanks for the reply Erik. I am not sure what that is. The camera shows up as "S_VIDEO_CONTROL_1". Is that the MxID?

Hi chandrian ,
MxID is unique id of the SOC on the OAK camera. Where do you see this string?
Thanks, Erik

Hi, I saw that this post ask a relatively similar concern that I have.

In my case I'm using the OAK-D as a webcam, however I want to change the name of S_VIDEOCONTROL_1, that's the name that is set by default when I try to run rgb_uvc.py script. Is there exists some way to change that name from script when OAK-D is used as a webcam?

Can confirm this was the intent of this question initially, it looks like the update for UVC Support intends to make this overridable.
