2 x Duo2 cards installed.
Driver 11.4.1.
SDK 11.4.
8 cards are queried by using IDeckLinkIterator::Next().
The values returned from IDecklink::GetDisplayName() are like:
DeckLink Duo (1)
DeckLink Duo (2)
DeckLink Duo (3)
DeckLink Duo (4)
DeckLink Duo (1)
DeckLink Duo (2)
DeckLink Duo (3)
DeckLink Duo (4)
It seems to return the same displayName for each port on 2 different Duo2 cards.
Tested the same issue with multiple Decklink SDI cards. No such problems.
The SDK documentation says:
The GetDisplayName method returns a string suitable for display in a user interface. If the
device has a custom label specified (see bmdDeckLinkConfigDeviceInformationLabel),
the label will be used as the display name for the device.
Otherwise, the string is made of the model name (as returned by GetModelName) followed
by an increasing number (starting from 1) if more than one instance of a device is present in
the system. If not, the returned string is simply the model name.
Is this a driver bug or a new feature, bmdDeckLinkConfigDeviceInformationLabel?
We do not set anything like bmdDeckLinkConfigDeviceInformationLabel.
