Media Express activex

Is it possible to control the Media Express deck control software via ActiveX?

There is no public API to control MediaExpress. However the deck control feature is exposed in the COM based DeckLink SDK and is accessible in any COM enabled programming languages(Visual C++, C#, VB.NET etc.). Check out the DeckControl sample in the SDK.

How would I interface to the DeckLink SDI card through LabWindows CVI? CVI is a C only (not C++) IDE so I'm not sure where to start. I just want to programmatically play an HD video through the output of the deckLink card.

Kevin,

You might be better off emailing the BMD-dev mailing list for answers. It has other programmers using the decklink sdk.

Cheers,

Andrew
