For any other person looking forward to this answer I got to the following solution (using python and CV2):



STEP 1:
Run your camera (or any other ffmpeg input) live locally



ffmpeg -i /dev/video0 -b 50k -r 20 -s 720x480 -f mpegts udp://127.0.0.1:2000 


STEP 2:
Have the ad or video you want to be displayed with the resolution as your input and most importantly saved as a .3gp video file.
STEP 3: Write a switcher.py file in the same directory as your .3gp file



import cv2
import sys
def main(argv):
adName = argv[0]
cap = cv2.VideoCapture("udp://127.0.0.1:2000")
showAd = 2
while cap.isOpened():
if showAd == 1:
cap.release()
del cap
cap = cv2.VideoCapture(adName)
showAd = 0
if showAd == 2:
cap.release()
del cap
cap = cv2.VideoCapture("udp://127.0.0.1:2000")
showAd = 0

ret, frame = cap.read()
try:
height, width, channels = frame.shape
except:
cap.release()
del cap
cap = cv2.VideoCapture("udp://127.0.0.1:2000")
key = cv2.waitKey(33)
if key==27:
showAd = 1
if key==32:
showAd = 2

if(ret):
sys.stdout.write(frame.tostring())
cv2.imshow("frame",frame)


cap.release()

if __name__ == "__main__":
main(sys.argv[1:])


STEP 5: Run the switcher.py with your ad name afterward and your output.



python switcher.py ad.3gp| ffplay -f rawvideo -pixel_format bgr24 -video_size 720x480 -i - 


STEP 6:
Hit "Esc" to show your ad!



REMEMBER TO CHANGE THE SCREEN VALUES!



Hope I've helped someone! (Probably I'll do some edits to this post)

    Hmmm, I can't understand your question very well...



    If you are having problems in using DeckLink and ffmpeg those website might be useful:



    https://www.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-devices.html#decklink



    https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Capture/Blackmagic



    If you are trying to switch from one DeckLink to a camera or other recording device, then I'm afraid to say you will need to code a "switcher" (probably, if streaming, the stream is going to stop). If you need any help with the coding e-mail me! (I don't have enough reputation to comment)
