VISCA backend for Sony Cameras #135
Description
The Visca over IP backend does not work with Sony BRC cameras, the messages are missing the required header (Payload type/Payload length/Sequence number). See Sony VISCA over IP document page 10.

Midimonster is just sending the "payload" part - this might wor with e.g. PTZOptics cameras, but not with Sony BRC or FR cameras.
Any chance this will be implemented? Maybe an extra backend for Sony PTZ?

Thanks for your effort and including a link to the documentation! Unfortunately the VISCA specs are somewhat manufacturer-specific.
I'll try to investigate whether making an optional header transmission part of the original backend makes sense, otherwise it might be easier to do a separate backend while sharing some of the code.
