HDMI Input on Blackmagic Intensity Pro.. Possible?

[Mr_P]

Hi

Yes it is possible - however it depends upon which Mac OS you are using?

Decklink card only supports PAL / 720p* / 1080i (not 1080p)
*requires new catatlyst version.

Contact Richard Bleasdale for a new catalyst version if using Snow leopard 10.6.5


PROBLEM:
Quicktime Video input broken in 10.6.2 onwards
- This affects video capture when using Decklink cards as they use quicktime capture engine.
This does not affect Active Silicon Capture cards, as they they use their own drivers.

****UPDATE****
SOLUTION:
(as at 1 Dec 2010)
Use either Snow Leopard 10.6.0 / 10.6.1 for existing shows where it is not practical to upgrade to the latest version
or download new version of Catalyst which includes a decklink video capture fix:

Thanks Simon!

I actually downgraded to 10.6.1 to keep Catalyst from locking up and closing after the Intensity install. Should I upgrade to Snow Leopard now and obtain the newest version of Catalyst from Richard?

I'm not really a fan of Snow Leopard, it has wreaked havoc on everything else I use as well.

I will try build m257 and see how that works out for me.

or obtain new version of Catalyst from Richard Bleasdale directly which includes a decklink video capture fix.

720p doesnt require anything from me-
