I am trying to replicate creating and loading custom family layouts in the same manner that you would using tcConsole.
Does any one have some insight on how it works and how I can achieve this using API?
I see TcConsole sends the command:
xCommand Video Layout LoadDb Type:Custom
How can I create this database without TcConsole?

Are you using TC or CE software on the SX80?
If TC software, I'd suggest you use TC Console, would be easier, not sure of how to upload layouts using the API.
If using CE software, the video functionality of TC Console no longer is supported and has been replaced with CE Console (Audio Only) going forward.

Hi Thanks for the reply,
Yes, I am still Using TC. The point of the whole thing is to have a control processor configure the endpoint so that it can be " hot-swappable " without having to connect it to the TcConsole software. In our AV integration, the system will simply not be useable without the custom layout family. So in the event of a failure and replacement, those layouts have to be reloaded before the room can be up again.

I was struggling with the same issue and finally succeeded with that command:
xcommand Video PictureLayoutSet LayoutFamily: custom CustomLayoutName: MYLAYOUTNAME Target: Local\x0D\x0A
Hope this saves you some of the time I had to spend on this...
