Setting DirectShow capture options from CLI

Postby jcsston » 20 Jan 2005 07:20

Is it possible to set the DirectShow capture property pages options from CLI?
For the use of tuning, setting the correct video size, and correct audio input for automated recording?

I looked at the DirectX video input section of that long help (thanks!), and I have a question.

On my DirectShow-compatible capture card (ATI TV Wonder Elite), I want to be able to capture from the S-Video input. If I use dshow-config (or check the box in the GUI), then I get a sequence of dialogs when I go to start the stream, and one of them allows me to adjust the "Crossbar", to select the S-Video input.

Is there any way to make this selection from the command line?
