Developing Custom Software Using Blackmagic Design Hardware

and SmartScope hardware with their own custom software. The Blackmagic SmartView Ethernet Protocol is
a text-based status and control protocol.
Downloading the Free SmartView Ethernet Protocol
The Blackmagic SmartView Ethernet Protocol is free. It is included in this SmartView & SmartScope manual
and can be downloaded from http://www.blackmagicdesign.com/support/
Joining the Blackmagic Design Developer List
The Blackmagic Developer mailing list is designed for technical questions regarding technologies used by
Blackmagic Design, e.g., QuickTime, Core Media, DirectShow, codecs, APIs, SDKs, etc. The free mailing list
is a forum where developers can discuss ideas and problems with other developers. Any subscriber may
reply and the Blackmagic Design engineers may also respond when appropriate. You can subscribe to the
mailing list at: http://lists.blackmagicdesign.com/mailman/listinfo/bmd-developer
In some cases, we might request a brief outline of the software you are developing if it is not immediately
obvious from your domain name that your organization develops video software. Please don't take offence
as we're simply trying to keep the list free of spam and viruses as well as end-user customers asking
non-development questions, employment agents or sales people trying to promote products on the list.
The list is just for developers.
Contacting Blackmagic Design Developer Assistance
You can also contact us via developer@blackmagicdesign.com if you have any developer related questions
or wish to ask questions off the list.
