  • 1.  To control BMD Video Router

    Posted 06-04-2021 13:20

    Hi.
    We would like integrate BlackMagic Video Router with DashBoard U in order to control Blackmagic Video Router via Dashboard Panel.
    But, I could not find any example grid to carry out procedure. 

    Is there any Dashboard examples I can control Blackmagic Video router via Dashboard U?
    Thanks.

    Here's an example grid file on GitHub that shows you how to get Dashboard to talk to a Blackmagic router: RossDashboardPanels/VideoHub Control.grid at master · josephdadams/RossDashboardPanels (github.com)

    It's a basic example but it does the job, using ogScript to send TCP commands to a Blackmagic router. I recently borrowed the code in this example and adapted it to allow our TV directors to control a Blackmagic router at our facility, and it's working well.

    Thanks for reply. I have copied all codes into DashBoard, I am new for coding, should I delete <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>   ?

    Hi Shamil
    If you are editing the file in a text editor (something like Notepad), you would keep the XML declaration in the code you copy/paste.
    If you are using the source tab of DashBoard's OGLML editor, you would paste everything after the XML declaration.
