Thanks for the reply! :-)

My request/question is not strictly related to decklink but capturing in
general; The ability to set the start tc when the first frame is captured
from any capture device. The method should not be depending on incoming tc
signals from external devices but rather rely on the PC clock to determine
the "exact" capture time of the first frame. If it's feasable.
