Hi,

Makes more sense. If you want to see how the field is set, then
do: SHOW COLUMNS FROM  capturecard and you'll see the default
value for the field.

If you want to see how many times defaultinput is used in the
source, then clone a copy from github and type:

     git grep defaultinput

and you'll see exactly one match. And that's the one that
creates the field displayed in SHOW COLUMNS above. Nothing
else reads or changes the data in that field.
