A Media Plugin is a single DLL that is loaded by the GeViScope server at its startup. Inside the DLL devices are defined. A good example for such a device would be an IP camera. Instances of devices are added to the hardware configuration with the help of GSCSetup.
Each device can have multiple channels. A channel can be a media channel (for video and/or audio), a digital input channel or a digital output channel.
Normally an IP camera would be a device with one media channel.
After adding a device from a Media Plugin DLL to the hardware configuration, the new available media channel can be added to the list of media channels (GSCSetup).
