Monitor Input Switch

Powerful c++ script to change current monitor input programmatically.

Prerequisites

This is an example of how to list things you need to use the software and how to install them.

• cmake >= 3.23. https://cmake.org/download/

Building

1. Clone a repository
2. Initialize build directory

   mkdir release && cd $_
   cmake.exe -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../

3. Build project from root

   cmake.exe --build ./release --target monitor_input_switch -j 16

Usage

switch[.exe] --monitor <ID> --code <CODE>

ID - is a monitor code that can be retrieved from switch[.exe] --list command;
CODE - is a hex code of your monitor input. table of possible values is given below:

The possible value is in range from 0 to 12 (in hex). if you don't know the desired value, you can always enumerate through all.
