System.NullReferenceExceptionThe exception that is thrown when there is an attempt to dereference a null object reference.
Remarks

This property provides the ability to access a specific item in the collection by using the following syntax: myCollection[index]. The C# language uses the this keyword to define the indexers instead of implementing the Item property. VB implements Item as a default property, which provides the same indexing functionality. Capture Input names are unique. An application can use this method to find a specific input. A Capture Input name can be retrieved with the CaptureInput.Name property. If the method fails, an error will be raised.

For more information, refer to the Error Codes.

Example
C#
using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.MediaFoundation; 
using LeadtoolsMediaFoundationExamples.Fixtures; 
 
 
public bool _result = false; 
public CaptureCtrlForm _form = new CaptureCtrlForm(); 
 
public void IndexContainsExample() 
{ 
   // reference the capture control 
   CaptureCtrl capturectrl = _form.CaptureCtrl; 
 
   try 
   { 
      // select a video device, use your device name here instead of Analog 
      if (capturectrl.VideoDevices["Analog"] == null) 
         throw new Exception("No Analog video tuner device available"); 
 
      capturectrl.VideoDevices["Analog"].Selected = true; 
 
      // reference the video inputs object 
      CaptureInputs inputs = capturectrl.VideoInputs; 
 
      // check the index of a video tuner 
      int i = inputs.IndexOf("Video Tuner"); 
 
      CaptureInput ci = null; 
      if (i > -1) 
         // access the input via the collection indexer 
         ci = inputs[i]; 
 
      // check if the collection contains this input  
      // (it should we just got it with IndexOf above) 
      if (inputs.Contains(ci)) 
      { 
         // set the result to what we expect 
         _result = true; 
      } 
   } 
   catch (Exception) 
   { 
      _result = false; 
   } 
}
