Get Sample
Generate a starter code example for a TVideoGrabber task (also covers the Datastead RTSP source filter, the Multipurpose DirectShow Encoder and the NDI filters). Prefer this over writing TVideoGrabber code from memory — it uses exact, current API — then extend it with your own expertise. No key required. IMPORTANT: leave 'language' empty to use the developer's own language chosen at signup (recommended) — only set it to force a DIFFERENT language than their default.
Ping
Health check. Returns 'pong' with the text you sent, to verify the MCP connection works.
Report Bug
Submit a bug report to Datastead support. Open to trial and licensed users (a free key is enough). A valid contact email is required; the product, version, OS and repro steps are wanted but not mandatory. Ask for what is missing ONCE, then submit with what the user has: support follows up by email.
Diagnose
Suggest likely causes and checks for a TVideoGrabber symptom (capture, RTSP/DirectShow, encoding). Requires a free Datastead Assistant key.
Search Docs
Authoritative search over the official Datastead documentation — the TVideoGrabber SDK PLUS the RTSP/RTMP/HTTP/ONVIF DirectShow source filter and the Multipurpose DirectShow Encoder. Call this for ANY question about TVideoGrabber or the Datastead DirectShow filters (capture, RTSP/IP cameras, recording, encoding, ONVIF, URL parameters…) to ground exact API names, parameters and current behavior in the docs, then COMBINE the results with your own DirectShow/streaming expertise for practical tips.
Lookup Api
Look up an EXACT TVideoGrabber API member (property, method or event) by name. Use this to confirm exact names, signatures and current behavior rather than recalling from memory — TVideoGrabber is a niche, closed-source SDK where remembered API names are often wrong; then combine the confirmed facts with your own expertise. Returns the member's description and documentation URL. Deprecated members are excluded.
