so, As I have been working on this problem. There are no snaps for the
specified software: desktopvideo, desktopvideo-gui, mediaexpress. While
attempting to install them via the deb, I get dependency problems revolving
around dkms. While attempting an 'apt --fix-broken install' I get this
output: https://pastebin.com/AtwWb8UR (note: paste will be up only 1 week
from this email send date)

So at this time All I want is to be able to use the capture device with
OBS. I imagine I am attempting to go the long way to get to where I want to
be.

I'm going to start poking around for how to build a kernel module to enable
the blackmagic design card
