I am creating a new video input using the http command..
$url="http://localhost:8088/API/?Function=AddInput%value=Video|c:\video.mp4..........

how do I start this video and make it display on output..
I see in the faq :

ActiveInput Send to Output the selected Input Input..

which would mean: http://.............../function=Activeinput&value=???

so my question, how do I know the input number of the newly created input? and is this the best way to do it?

I am using powershell and an access database to create a video schedualing program and on-line tvguide with title updates of the current playing video, next playing video and what time it will start...
