Force restart DeckLinkHardwareXPCService

PostFri Oct 21, 2022 3:09 am

Hi
I am currently testing DeckLinkAPI sandbox support under macOS.

Every time when I go debug in Xcode, it seems DeckLinkHardwareXPCService stoped functioning.
Also, If I force quit testing app while Capture session is running, It also stop functioning and not quit automatically.

==> com.backmagic-design.desktopvideo.DeckLinkHardwareXPCService

1)Is there any proper way to restart above XPC service from application side (sandboxed) ?
If possible, I would like to add some menu to restart XPCService programatically.

2)Is there any proper way to detect if XPC service is inconsistent state or not?

As far as I know, XPC service should quit automatically after some idle time but I cannot confirm the auto-quit behavior.

Thanks in advance,
Takashi Mochizuki@MyCometG3
