QGroundControl allows switching between the camera streams it receives information about via MAVLink, but there seems to have been a regression in the camera manager that no longer supports that functionality.
Steps to reproduce
Install BlueOS-1.1.1 on a system with multiple video streams
Open QGroundControl
Set a joystick button function to "Next Camera" or "Previous Camera"
Pressing the button while in Fly View switches the camera feed, as expected
From the release notes, this seems to use MCM t3.12.1 ✅
Install BlueOS-1.2.0-beta.1 (or any more recent version)
Joystick switching no longer works
MCM >= t3.12.4 ❌
Primary pain point(s)
Users can't switch camera streams in QGC (and other applications/programs using the same mechanism), which wastes their additional camera hardware and bandwidth usage.
