Can switch a couple of camera (DV) sources and is OSC remote
controllable (the website is a tad out of date, but the source rocks)

We've used it at various Linux-Audio Conferences to manage the
live-stream (a couple of cameras, screen-grabber/scan-converter).

There's additional tools to map buttons of a BCF2K -> OSC -> DVswitch

(if you understand some German: Joern and I did a recent workshop at the
SAE in Berlin: http://gareus.org/_export/s5/wiki/dvswitch_slides )

ciao,
