Querying and updating configuration information
The "configuration" command may be used to query the current configuration of the deck:
configuration↵
The server returns the configuration of the deck:
211 configuration:↵
audio input: {"embedded" , "XLR" , "RCA"}↵
video input: {"SDI" , "HDMI" , "component"}↵
file format: {File format}↵
↵
One or more configuration parameters may be specified to change the configuration of the deck.
To change the current video input:
configuration: video input: {"SDI" , "HDMI" , "component"}↵
Valid video inputs may vary between models. To configure the current audio input:
configuration: audio input: {"embedded" , "XLR" , "RCA"}↵
Valid audio inputs may vary between models.
To configure the current file format:
configuration: file format: {File format}↵
Note that changes to the file format may require the deck to reset, which will cause the client connection to
be closed. In such case, response code 213 will be returned (instead of 200) before the client connection is
closed:
"213 deck rebooting"
Asynchronous configuration information change notification is disabled by default and may be configured
with the "notify" command. When enabled, changes in configuration will generate a "511 configuration:"
asynchronous message with the same parameters as the "211 configuration:" message.
Selecting active slot and video format
The "slot select" command instructs the deck to switch to a specified slot, or/and to select a specified
output video format. To switch to a specified slot:
slot select: slot id: {slot ID}↵
To select the output video format:
slot select: video format: {video format}↵
Either or all slot select parameters may be specified. Note that selecting video format will result in a rescan
of the disk to reconstruct the timeline with all clips of the specified video format.
Clearing the current timeline
The "clips clear" command instructs the deck to empty the current timeline:
clips clear↵
The server responds with
200 ok↵
