To fix this, I thought why not connect the ptz cameras via their rs485 to a rs485 <-> usb serial converter to a computer and use a server that selects which ptz camera is sent the current joystick input. It also has a http api that allows seleting the current camera target and ptz commands like save_preset or goto_preset.
