Selection Property

Summary

Gets or sets the zero-based index of the currently selected CaptureInput item.

Syntax

C++/CLI

public int Selection { get; set; }

public: 
property int Selection { 
   int get(); 
   void set (    int ); 
}

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.

Example

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Multimedia; 
using LeadtoolsMultimediaExamples.Fixtures; 
 
 
public bool _result = false; 
public CaptureCtrlForm _form = new CaptureCtrlForm(); 
 
public void CaptureInputsExample() 
{ 
   string inputName, inputFriendlyName; 
   int selection; 
 
   // reference the capture control 
   CaptureCtrl capturectrl = _form.CaptureCtrl; 
 
   // select a video device, use your device's name here instead of Analog 
   if (capturectrl.VideoDevices["Analog"] == null) 
      throw new Exception("No Analog video tuner device available"); 
 
   capturectrl.VideoDevices["Analog"].Selected = true; 
 
   // get the audio inputs object 
   CaptureInputs inputs = capturectrl.VideoInputs; 
 
   try 
   { 
      // select an input by name if possible 
      if (inputs["Video Composite"] != null) 
         inputs["Video Composite"].Selected = true; 
 
      // get the current selected input 
      selection = inputs.Selection; 
 
      foreach (CaptureInput ci in inputs) 
      { 
         // get the inputs properties 
         inputName = ci.Name; 
         inputFriendlyName = ci.FriendlyName; 
 
         // if we found the video tuner input 
         if (inputFriendlyName == "Video Tuner") 
         { 
            // select it and break 
            ci.Selected = true; 
            break; 
         } 
      } 
 
      // set the result to what we expect 
      _result = (selection != inputs.Selection); 
 
   } 
   catch (Exception) 
   { 
      _result = false;
