THIS PAGE IS WIP, WORK IN PROGRESS


This applies to Windows 10 and above and MXWendler version 5.0 and above with AJA Kona 5 (and maybe other) capture cards installed.

Problem

The capture card is not visible in Settings->Live Devices

Solution

You have to manually install the DirectShow drivers

  1. Download the driver
  2. Unpack driver in location where driver is located. You must not delete or move the driver later.
  3. Locate this location with the explorer
  4. Copy the location path in the adress line
  5. Register driver as admin via command terminal:
    1. Click on 'Start'
    2. Type 'cmd'
    3. Right-click CMD-app 'Start as Administrator'
    4. Navigate to the drive and folder where the xxx.dll driver with the command 'cd' and paste the path copied before
    5. type regsvr32 (name_of_dll.dll)

Background

The AJA Kona driver comes with a broken DirectShow installer. You have to register the device manually as admin so it can be found by other software.
