How to use the demo to send a thumbnail to capture？

[dkbron]

Hello, this is my first time using CITP. I want to send a thumbnail to Capture so I can see some effects in it. However, when using CitpMediaServerService, I do not receive "MsexMessageType.GetElementThumbnailMessage" from Capture. Instead, I receive "MsexMessageType.RequestStreamMessage". Do I need to configure anything in DummyMediaServerDevice to make it work?

In CITP, thumbnails are for exposing preview images for each media library asset to external devices (most commonly lighting consoles). Visualizers use the streaming functionality to get real-time previews of the video output.

I'm not sure of your application, but this project is a software library for implementing CITP in other software. It does not have any user-facing functionality. The DummyMediaServerDevice is an example for implementors of the library to follow.
