SetDatasteadFilterDllName

function

Delphi
function SetDatasteadFilterDllName (Value: string): Boolean;
C++Builder
bool __fastcall SetDatasteadFilterDllName(System::UnicodeString Value);
C#
public bool SetDatasteadFilterDllName(string Value);
VB.NET
Public Function SetDatasteadFilterDllName(Value As String) As Boolean
C++/Qt
BOOL SetDatasteadFilterDllName (wchar_t *Value);

Specifies the name of the Datastead ".ax" file, if it has been renamed. This function is related to the external TVideoGrabber components, e.g. the Datastead RTSP/RTMP/HTTP/ONVIF Source, the Datastead Multipurpose Encoder or the Datastead NDI Filters.

Depending on the Datastead product, the name of the .ax file must be prefixed as follows:

  • RTSP/RTMP/HTTP/ONVIF Source: [rtsp]

  • Datastead Multipurpose Encoder: [mpe]

  • Datastead NDI Filters: [ndi]

E.g. if DatasteadRTSPSource.ax has been renamed to DatasteadRTSP.ax, specify its name as follows:

VideoGrabber.SetDatasteadFilterDLLName ("[rtsp]DatasteadRTSP.ax");

Note: this function must be invoked only once, at the very beginning of the application.
