Detailed Description

Device description.

The input modules, which access special hardware devices (e.g. CD drives), have autoscanning functionality built in. You can call one of the bgav_find_devices_* functions to get a list of supported devices (see bgav_device_info_t). The created list must be freed with bgav_device_info_destroy when it's no longer used.
