Hi, the documentation was missing. I just updated it.

With rgbdx_sync, you can sync up to 8 cameras. With direct sync in rtabmap or odometry nodes, you can sync up to 5 or 4 cameras respectively.

Usin rgbdx_sync can be useful if you want to sync a LiDAR running a lower frame rate in rtabmap node, so you can pre-sync all cameras at 30 Hz with rgbdx_sync, then sync with lidar at 10 Hz in rtabmap node.

Other than that, there are no other advantages of rgbdx_sync.

cheers,
Mathieu
