Selection Property (CaptureInputs)

Example 





Gets or sets the zero-based index of the currently selected CaptureInput item.
Syntax
public int Selection {get; set;}
'Declaration
 
Public Property Selection As Integer
'Usage
 
Dim instance As CaptureInputs
Dim value As Integer
 
instance.Selection = value
 
value = instance.Selection
public int Selection {get; set;}
 get_Selection();
set_Selection(value);
public:
property int Selection {
   int get();
   void set (    int value);
}

Property Value

The zero-based index of the selected item; or -1 if no item is selected.
Remarks
If this property is -1, then check the number of capture inputs in the Count Property. If the Count property is non-zero then the Video and Audio inputs do not match. This is only a warning and not an error. The inputs may be left the way they are, or this situation may be corrected using the NearestSelection property.

For more information on unmatched pairs of video and audio inputs, refer to CaptureInputs Object.

Assignment can raise an error exception. For more information, refer to the Error Codes.
