Setup Blackmagic Smart Video Hub

The Blackmagic Smart Video Hub is a suitable Matrix for use with Disguise software.

Example

  1. Create a telnet device with the appropriate IP address and port (default 9990).

  2. Create a TelnetDVIMatrix device, assign it the Telnet device you just created.

  3. In the "route" field of the TelnetDVIMatrix device, type the following string:
    VIDEO OUTPUT ROUTING:\n$2 $1\n\n
    This is the telnet command used to issue a remote routing change to the Videohub, with "$2" and "$1" as placeholders for output and input respectively.
