Mockup Blackmagic Videohub Server


A mockup server that emulates the Blackmagic Videohub Ethernet Protocol v2.3, allowing you to test and develop applications without access to actual hardware.

Features

- Emulates the Blackmagic Videohub Ethernet Protocol v2.3
- Configurable number of inputs and outputs (IO ports)
- Customizable listening port
- Ideal for testing and development purposes

Installation

You can run the mockup server directly using npx:

``bash
npx @bitfocusas/mockup-bmd-videohub
`

Alternatively, install it globally:

`bash
npm install -g @bitfocusas/mockup-bmd-videohub
`

Usage

$3

- IO: Sets the number of input/output ports (default: 128).
- PORT: Sets the listening port for the server (default: 9990).

$3

To start the server with default settings:

`bash
npx @bitfocusas/mockup-bmd-videohub
`

To specify the number of IO ports and the listening port:

`bash
IO=128 PORT=9991 npx @bitfocusas/mockup-bmd-videohub
`

Example with custom settings:

`bash
export IO=64
export PORT=9992
npx @bitfocusas/mockup-bmd-videohub
`

Or in one line:

`bash
IO=64 PORT=9992 npx @bitfocusas/mockup-bmd-videohub
`

The server will start and announce:

`bash
Starting server with 64 IOs
Successfully bound 9992
