Almuth, Simulstream is the Osprey's software for allowing multiple applications to access the same stream. It isn't usually needed for AG use unless you're requiring that multiple applications are needing access to the same stream. For example, It could be useful if you wanted to web-stream your outputs as well as have VIC transmit them. If you look, you now have multiple copies of the same stream available to you.... from each capture.

These videoinputs were shown as Osprey-440 Video Device 1A Osprey-440 Video Device 1B Osprey-440 Video Device 1C Osprey-440 Video Device 1D So far, everything was ok. After registering Simulstream, i got a list of 16 devices: Osprey-440 Video Device 1A.1 Osprey-440 Video Device 1A.2 Osprey-440 Video Device 1A.3 Osprey-440 Video Device 1A.4 Osprey-440 Video Device 1B.1 ... ... Osprey-440 Video Device 1D.4. These are shown in the Swiftcap Software, that came with the Osprey card. The AGN-client only shows the first 10 of these video devices, so I get a list with only: Osprey-440 Video Device 1A.3 Osprey-440 Video Device 1A.2 Osprey-440 Video Device 1A.4 Osprey-440 Video Device 1A.1 Osprey-440 Video Device 1B.3 Osprey-440 Video Device 1B.2 Osprey-440 Video Device 1B.4 Osprey-440 Video Device 1B.1 Osprey-440 Video Device 1C.3 Osprey-440 Video Device 1C.2 Is there a limitation in the scan for video devices so that I cannot see more than 10? Any hints how I can increase this? Thanks for any help.
