StatusMonitor and input format detection
Posted: Wed Aug 07, 2019 8:18 pm
DeckLink 8K Pro, SDK 11.2
I've been experimenting with DeckLinkStatus and DeckLinkNotification in an effort to detect the current input format and noticed that in the StatusMonitor application that bmdDeckLinkStatusDetectedVideoInputMode never gets output.
Why is that?
In my own application I can get it to function ONLY after an EnableVideoInput call on the same sub device.
However this hasn't been reliable either -- on the 8K Pro I can only reliably get this to work on Sub Devices 1&2. 3&4 are always flaky.
Any insight into what might be wrong here?
Accurate input format detection across all 4 sub devices is an important part of a workflow I'm developing.
Thanks,
David
