The joystick button functions [are configurable](https://docs.qgroundcontrol.com/master/en/qgc-user-guide/setup_view/joystick.html#configure). Switching video feeds is unrelated to the autopilot (so can’t be set using the [autopilot button parameters](https://docs.bluerobotics.com/ardusub-zola/software/autopilot/ArduSub-4.1/developers/parameters/#btnn-parameters)), but QGC provides [a set of extra button functions](https://github.com/mavlink/qgroundcontrol/blob/master/src/Joystick/Joystick.h#L339-L368) that it can either handle locally or send a direct MAVLink message that a system may be able to handle. I believe you’re after the “Next Video Stream” / “Previous Video Stream” functions, although I did just try those (and the “Next Camera” / “Previous Camera” ones) and wasn’t able to get them to work. I’m pretty sure they worked previously, so I’ve asked internally in case we know why that would have changed. * * * So you’re aware, QGC does also include support for [sending custom MAVLink commands](https://discuss.bluerobotics.com/t/sending-custom-mavlink-commands-with-qgc/17070) to the vehicle, but that’s unrelated in this case. --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.bluerobotics.com/t/how-do-you-use-2-cameras-on-qgroundcontrol/2533)._
