'''Solution'''
'''Solution'''


You have to manually install the DirectShow drivers
Disable '''Allow YUV Formats''' in the live media settings.
 
# Download the driver
# Unpack driver in location where driver can stay. '''You must not delete or move the driver later.'''
# Locate this location with the explorer
# Copy the location path in the adress line
# Register driver as admin via command terminal:
## Click on 'Start'
## Type <code>cmd</code>
## Right-click CMD-app 'Start as Administrator'
## Navigate to the drive and folder where the AJAMultiCapture64.dll driver with the command <code>cd D:\to\my\folder</code> and paste the path copied before (copy/paste will not work, because it is an Administrator Shell)
## type <code>regsvr32 AJAMultiCapture64.dll</code>

Tip: Sometimes Stage Designer / FXServer complains with 'Cannot find VIDEOINFOHEADER' and does not open the device. In this case, set the AJA capture format to RGBA8 '''and restart the computer system'''.

To disable ''Allow YUV Formats''
# Menu -> Settings -> Media -> Clips, Live, Virtual
# In 'Media Settings' window click on 'Live Devices' and '''deselect''' ''Allow YUV Formats''


'''Background'''


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