Hello folks, i need to have 2 cameras on the stage to used them as video inputs in modul 8. I did try IP camera ( DCS-930L) in combination with the nano router (TL-WR702N), it didn't work. Can somebody tell me what kind of camera should i use, that problem is that between the stage and my computer there is 50ft.

It is not so a problem of cameras but a problem of video inputs.
The right question is : how many video input I have my Mac ?
Depending on the Mac model.
Upgrading a Mac Pro with a BMD Decklink Extreme and a BMD Decklink Duo, or a QuadCapture gives you 3 video independent video inputs.
The new macBook Pro Retina can handle (with his 2 thunderbolt ports) 2 video inputs.
I never use IP cameras or Usb cameras, it works when it works and you ll got a huge delay on your video output process.
