Control an ETX or LX200 from Stellarium

Here are 2 short videos I made on how to control a Meade telescope from Stellarium.  I am using an ETX in this demo, but I also use Stellarium to drive the 14 inch.  As you can see, it's simple, quick, and easy!

Video 1 deals with hardware, and video 2 with software setup.
