# capture-device-list
[][egemen]
[](https://pypi.org/project/capture-devices/)
Simplest way to connect DirectShow Windows API with FFmpeg and list all capture devices with alternative names. The user can save the results to a file or print either "video", "audio", or both "audio, video" devices.

| device_type | `'audio' , 'video', 'audio_video'` | Device Type |str
| alt_name | `True , False` | Show alternative name | bool
| result_ | `True , False` | Return result |bool
| list_all | `True , False` |Show all devices |bool
| save | `True , False` |Save result to text |bool
## Setting Arguments
| Description | Values
| ----------------- | ---- |
| Only audio devices | `'-audio', '-a'` |
| Only video devices | `'-video', '-v'` |
| Only audio and video devices | `'-audio_video', '-av'`
| Show alternative names | `'-alternative', '-alt'`

| Save to text | `'-save', '-s'` |
## Build
To build this project, follow these commands
```bash
git clone https://github.com/egemengulpinar/capture-device-list.git
cd capture-device-list
python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
```
## Usage with Arguments
First clone the repo and go to directory. After, based on arguments table, follow the syntax below.
```bash
python capture_devices.py -list_all -save
# or
python capture_devices.py -audio -alternative -save
```
## Usage with pip
First install the packages using with pip
```bash
pip install capture-devices
```
After, you can import package similarly:
```python
from capture_devices import devices
```
For using this library, follow these structure:
```python
result = devices.run_with_param(device_type='audio', alt_name=True,result_= True)
print(result)
# or
devices.run_with_param(alt_name=True,list_all=True)
```
