CueCam for Eos

How does CueCam connect to my Eos console?

CueCam connects over your local network using the OSC (Open Sound Control) protocol. Enter your console's IP address in CueCam's settings and it will receive live cue data in real time. It works with any ETC Eos-family console running version 3.2 or later — from Apex, Eos, Ion, Gio, to Element and Nomad.

What devices does CueCam support?

CueCam runs on iPhone and iPad (iOS 18.6 or later), and Apple Watch (watchOS 11.0 or later). Use your phone or iPad as the camera, and your Apple Watch as a wireless remote control.

Can I use CueCam on my Mac?

At present, no. But we're working on a macOS version!

Is CueCam free?

CueCam is free to download and try the functionality unrestricted for five minutes. The full licence is a one-time purchase of £34.99 (or approximate equivalent in your local currency) — no subscription, no recurring fees. You buy it once and it's yours.

Can I share recordings with my production team?

Absolutely. CueCam exports standard video files that play on any device — no special software needed. Upload directly to Dropbox from the app, or share via email, or any method you prefer. Chapter markers let your team jump straight to specific cues and the CueCam Play application makes it even easier to navigate your show.

I can stream video to my console?

Yes! CueCam includes a built-in RTSP server which is supported in recent versions of Eos. You can embed a live camera feed and recording status directly into your Eos Magic Sheets, so you can have confidence in monitoring your recording state, markers, and other data without leaving your desk even when your iOS device is positioned out of reach.

Does CueCam collect my data?

No. CueCam does not collect any personal data. An optional venue location feature sends anonymous, ephemeral GPS data to identify nearby venues for metadata — nothing is stored or linked to you.

What about MA, Avolites, Chamsys..?

CueCam was designed by theatre lighting designers and programmers initially for our own use, and we predominantly use ETC Eos. We may consider support for other desks in the future, but right now we're making the best tool we can to work with the tools we already use.
