13.1 Update Issue- Blackmagic Ultrastudio HDMI Monitor Out not centered

After the 13.1 update the HDMI monitor output on the Blackmagic Ultrastudio 4k is not centered on the screen. About 2 inches are cut off the right side. I have tweaked AE > Preferences > Video Preview - with Scale to fit being the only setting that shows a image.
This only occurs on the HDMI out. The SDI output is correct. (Although only with Scale to Fit selected)
It is only present in After Effects, Premiere monitor output works correctly.
Any advice? Thanks in advance!
Specs:
AE CC 2014.1 release -v 13.1.0.111
Apple MacPro 6,1 -- 3.7 GHz Quad-Core E5
AMD FirePro D300 2048 MB
OSx 10.9.5

            Ok, thats the procedure I was talking about earlier. I did that bios default factory reset just now. First the version 6 and earlier. It didn't work so I tried version 7 and later and that didn't work. I then tried version 6 and earlier again only this time pushed F10 more rapidly and got right in right when I got to the F5 and enter portion. Then I pushed F10 again to save the change and enter again to close. The PC didn't boot up the next screen like the test said it would. So I did it all again and spent some time reading what was on the bios pages but  accidently pushed ESC as the bios menu suggested instead of enter to close out   . No boot up screen again. I did another hard shutdown and then unplugged the cord for 5 minutes and this time the PC stayed off when I plugged it back in. The bios are set to default but I cannot get it to start again in safe mode or boot up. So if the power supply is working properly, and the monitor worked in safe mode, then the video card must be good. right?
          So I'm editing from the night before, its Monday morning here in Wi. and I'm sorry to say that after leaving the PC unplugged all night that when I plugged it back in this morning, the dumb thing started again without pushing the  start button.  So the only thing doing a recovery on the bios accomplished was to prove that my the video card can run the monitor in safe mode which is a good thing I guess. Hope someone has an idea as to what else I can try.-------thanks

  • Ipad Mini :Lightning /HDMI Video Out Not working

    I just tried a new Apple Ipad/IPhone AV HDMI/ Lightning adapter to try and play videos to my TV/Monitors thru their HDMI Port.
    The Ipad Mini recognized it was plugged in and notified me it was playing thru my TV.
    But I got no audio/video thru the TV and no indication it was getting a signal thru the adapter.
    What am I doing wrong?
    The HDMI input in my Flatscreen HD TV shows my Mac Mini screen perfectly and any videos I have thru it.
    Bad adapter, bad HDMI cable, operator error?
    What is the system NOT playing content?
    The $49.00 adapter should work flawlessly at this price point, imho.

    Took a trip to the Genius Bar and about 2 minutes to correct: The Dynex HDMI Cable from Best Buy didn't work. The Apple one works fine.
    Now I find my Movie Download from Comcast On Demand won't play thru the adapter. The Movie plays fine on the Mini, but I get a screen warning it's being blocked by Apples' Relationship with Starz. Funny, Comcast says it works fine. Another example of Apple forcing me to use the I-Tunes store on their products if I want to see it on their Hardware? If I pay for the rights thru Comcast, and they don't limit my Hardware, is it right for a Computer Maker too?  After the E-Books price fixing probe...are these kinds of issues next?

  • MacMini HDMI Audio Out Not Working

    Greetings all,
    I have a 2010 Mac Mini plugged into a Yamaha RX-V71 Receiver via HDMI.  The receiver is plugged into a Samsung TV via HDMI.  The image displays correctly onto the TV however the audio only plays through the Mac Mini's internal stereo.  When I go to System Preferences -> Sound - > Output - my receiver is not listed.  The only items listed are the Mac Mini and the Samsung TV.  When I go to Applications -> Utilities -> Audio MIDI Setup the receiver is not listed only the Mac Mini and the Samsung TV.
    I have swapped out HDMI cables.  Mac Mini is updated to Lion 10.8.2.  The receiver is on and I have tried restarting the TV, Mini and receiver multiple times in different orders.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or a fix for this?
    Thanks!

    This is the same for my setup.
    Have you tried selecting tv hdmi as your output device?
    That is what I select to play through my receiver.

  • After update to version 4.4 optical out not working

    Does anybody experience the same problem? After todays update to ios5 (version 4.4) the optical output does not work anymore. I have the problem on all Apple TV's with different audio systems. Any help?

    I also have an issue on my Apple TV, but unsure if it is the ports out or the device itself.  I have tried resetting it, reboting Airport, nothing works....
    I was streaming some Radio music while performing the update and it simply stopped...as I thought it was an odd coincidence, I decided to do an update to the Apple TV.  It stated it would be a bit less than 20 min to update.  I checked on it in about an hour and the TV no longer displayed the device and the device itself was blinking rapidly. 
    I also tried to reset it via the remote...holding down the buttons for 6 seconds...I tried 3 or 3 times.  The light acted as if it was resetting, but it then reverted back to the rapid blinking.
    I need to get this resolved....

  • No HDMI audio out option, only Airplay

    Hi everyone,
    Hoping to get some enlightenment here as I am at my wits end.   Here's my setup:
    Macbook Pro (mid 2011 era)
    Belkin MDP to HDMI converter
    Monoprice HDMI cable to Denon AV-1912 receiver
    Prior to upgrading to Mavericks and numerous updates to my Apple TV, I was able to plug in to my Denon receiver via HDMI and get display and sound options pop up through System Preferences, no problem.  Everything worked beautifully.   So there is no issue with my sound card not supporting HDMI.
    Now, whenever I try to connect through HDMI, I can only get the display to work.  Trying to bypass the internal speakers through the Sound panel in System Preferences yields no results.  My Denon receiver only shows up in the Sound Output panel as an Airplay option, not as HDMI.  When I select it as Airplay, the receiver automatically switches to the Airplay (Internet Radio) source and kills the display connection it had made with HDMI.
    I can't for the life of me figure out how to either:
    a) Disable Airplay in my Denon receiver OR more apropos to this forum,
    b) Get HDMI restored as an option in my Sound Output preferences.
    Any suggestions welcomed!
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I have the same issue. Setup is:
    -- mid-2012 MBP (non-retina) running 10.8.5 (including the very latest supplemental 10.8.5 which was supposed to fix a different issue with an HDMI audio connection not working after a Mac's wakeup from sleep).
    -- MBP connected to a Harman Kardon BDS 577 AV receiver's HDMI input (this is a 5.1 receiver, connected to 5.1 speakers).
    -- MBP and receiver connected via PNY mini-DP-to-HDMI adapter, which both its Amazon description & review explicitly say supports passthrough audio on Macs, and a high quality AmazonBasics HDMI cable (ditto).
    -- The receiver's HDMI output is connected to an Epson EH-TW3200 projector's HDMI input (projector is Euro version of the US Epson 8345; it has no audio whatsoever).
    -- The Epson is set to mirror the MBP display, and the MBP's internal display resolution is set to match the Epson's (1080p), which appears as "Epson PJ" in the menubar's Displays pulldown.
    1) The issue we're having here is very clearly different from the one with the HDMI connection not working after wakeup (numerous thread about it in Apple Discussions & other forums), since there the HDMI option for sound output device is available (in the Sound Preferences panel, the equiv. menu-bar shortcut and in Audio MIDI Setup and VLC Audio --> Audio Device submenu), but didn't work properly after wakeup.
    2) With our issue, when everything is connected but the projector is turned off, sound works fine. I have the option to select HDMI in all the aforementioned locations (the device is called "HDMI TV"), and, when chosen, sound is properly output via the AV receiver according to the source material (5.1 with both DTS and AC3 encodings work fine, as does stereo).
    3) As soon as the projector is turned on, video appears fine as expected on the projector, mirroring the MBP's screen, but the HDMI option disappears from all above lists of sound output devices. If I was in the middle of a movie on VLC, audio switches to the builtin speakers on the MBP.
    4) Trying to trick the sytem by defining a new audio aggregate device in Audio MIDI Setup when the projector is off,  having it include the HDMI device, and then trying to choose it when the projector is on doesn't work -- the aggregate device is grayed out and can't be chosen.
    5)  TjoffenF's solution above doesn't help me: For me VLC behaves exactly like the rest of the system, so using it doesn't help. I tried several versions of VLC, including old  (1.1.2) & new (2.0.9, 2.1.4).
    6) Jackmo69's solution doesn't work for me either: The order the various components are switched on and/or connected doesn't matter. As soon as the projector is on, HDMI audio option simply disappears and the MBP stops using the HDMI port for audio.
    7) Generally, this seems to be a problem with something called EDID. This is the protocol which HDMI and DVI devices use to tell each other about their capabilities (resolution, audio supported, etc.). Somehow the Mac thinks the HDMI device it is attached to has no audio at all, so it falls back to its internal speakers. I initially thought the problem was with my AV receiver  -- whether or not the projector is turned on, it should report its own EDID, not the projector's, so I shouldn't have seen the "Epson PJ" option, right?
    8) I contacted the local tech support for Harman Kardon. They hadn't heard of an issue with their receiver, but don't have Macs. From their POV, which sounded reasonable, if the issue occured with a PC laptop, they'd agree that their equipment was the culprit. They lent me a a Windows7 laptop with a builtin HDMI port (Dell Studio 1558) for a week to test.
    I performed hours of experiments with  it, replacing the MBP with the Dell, all other things in the setup being identical with the exception of the PNY adapter (same AV receiver, same projector, same cables, same VLC version, same source files).
    9) The result:
    With the Dell, all the source files output audio via HDMI to the receiver with no issues, and turning the projector on or off has no effect on the audio. To me, this proves that the issue is the Mac, probably an HDMI driver issue. AFAIK the PNY & similar adapter are simple mechanical adapters (the actual video signals are identical), so given it transmits audio fine from the MBP (when the projector is off) I don't see how the adapter could be the problem (I don't own a TV, so couldn't test with one).
    10) Extensive googling yielded a couple other people with similar problems using various Macs (earlier but still post-2009 MBs and MBPs as well as a Mac mini), projectors and AV receivers. Their solutions were to (a) run TOSLINK audio seperately from the Mac to the receiver (not an option for me, since my receiver accepts TOSLINK only for an audio-only source) or (b) use an EDID emulator device, which spoofs the EDID so the Mac will agree. There was at least one person who had the issue appear after upgrading fromOS X 10.6 to 10.8 (Mac and other components didn't change), which is yet another indication this is a Mac driver issue.
    10) I really don't like the idea of EDID emulators; it's a kludgy solution (needs its own power supply and additional HDMI cable), expensive ($100-$150), and not available locally. Reports on them say they don't always work.
    11) I'm very much ****** at Apple at this point. The only solution I can see right now is to buy a media streamer with HDMI output, to circumvent the problem -- not an ideal solution, since it means adding a middleman, but cheaper and and more likely to work then an EDID emulator. (Incidentally, an Apple TV wouldn''t work for me as a streamer because it supports very few video codecs & file types -- not that I'd be happy to give Apple more money to fix a problem they're reponsible for.)
    If anyone has since found another solution, I'd realy appreciate hearing about it.

  • Server Monitor is not connecting to Server but Server Admin does

    I have a Leopard Server up and running. Also the internal network is setup correctly (changeip -checkhostname). Now I want to monitor that server from a Mac OS X Leopard laptop with the Server Monitor tool. So I installed the Administration Tools on the laptop.
    Now I can administer and manage the workgroups but I CANNOT monitor it with the Server Monitor. I setup the server with its IP address and the same user name I use to connect using the Server Admin. The log just states *Failed to contact the server*. Again I work with the Server Admin and Workgroup Manager on that server without any issues but the Server Monitor does not work and it even *does not work locally* on the server itself.
    Any pointers?
    Thanks - Andy

    He's right, it doesn't work on anything other than an xserve-
    what are you running leopard server on?
    if it IS an xserve, this was my problem.
    I had my ethernet coming in on EN3- a PCIx card.
    Guess what? Server monitor doesn't talk to anything other than EN0 or EN1 out of the box.
    You SHOULD however be able to view the xserve itself- using 127.0.0.1 (worked for mine)
    This kbase article put me in the right direction-- specifically the IPMITool
    to conifigure lights out management(you HAVE to use it if you're using anything other than EN0 or EN1)

  • Blackmagic Design for HD (HDMI) monitoring from HDV?

    Would like to get some input on Blackmagic designs Intensity HDMI HD Editing Card.
    I was a little disappointed that my Sony HC3's HDMI output would not work with FCP have HDV (Firewire), but I found a good solution in the Blackmagic Designs Intensity that claims full support for HDMI monitoring in FCP (and I assume in Motion).
    Seems like a relatively cheap solution $250. http://www.guygraphics.com/GGPROD-67258.html
    The ability to record live HDMI input uncompressed via my Sony HC3 is definitely interesting (not sure how practical given this is a PCIe card for desktop Mac - perhaps in a studio situation).
    Thoughts?
    Thanks, Rob.

    I don't use HDMI for anything, only sdi or hdsdi if I'm in the digital world.
    Aja products are bullet proof and their tech support is bar none. I've installed many many many of their products in production facilities and control rooms and their quality is superb. I use many of their broadcast products, like the FS1 on a daily basis and I wish I had excuse to have an FS1 in my house.
    At home, I have an LHe in my 2006 design Mac Pro quad. If you can follow directions, maybe do a forum search, the slot choice is a non-existent issue. Sometimes they have an issue with their Kona software but this is mostly due to Apple's constant toxic QT updates and a quick phone call to Aja sorts these things out in an instant. Aja also has a very good forum presence on the Cow, something BM does not.
    Regarding HDMI, you'll need to find an hdsdi to hdmi adapter, like the [Hi5|http://www.aja.com/html/productsconvertersHI5.html] and yes, this all does cost more than BM products and the new Matrox MXO2 which seems to be a great product, but quite honestly, Aja products work out of the box, period.
    I make no compensation at all from this recommendation but it'd be great of Aja if they'd cut me a break on a Kona 3 this spring......

  • Windows 8.1 update only hdmi monitor detected 2 dvi monitors undetected

    Updated Windows 8 to 8.1 and have 3 monitors on Geforce 660ti video card. Since update only hdmi monitor detects. Have updated all video card drivers and clean installed multiple times but still same problem. Can unplug hdmi monitor and get nothing. Plug
    it in and that monitor works but nothing on dvi monitors.

    Hi,
    Check whether the monitor is detected by the computer according to this method:
    Go to control panel, then go to hardware and sound, click the display.
    Then click Change display settings at the left panel, just like the picture shown as below, then click Detect.
    There should be all the monitors listed, meanwhile I suggest to go to the official website of your computer motherboard producer and download and install the BIOS version accordingly.

  • Unable to capture via Blackmagic UltraStudio Express

    Hi,
    I'm having trouble capturing into Premiere Pro via UltraStudio Express.
    I have a macbook pro 15” retina, Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014,  Desktop Video 10.1.4 (installed after PP), Ultrastudio Express, Ultrastudio Mini Monitor, Media Express, DaVinci Resolve 11 Lite.
    I can capture from a camera via SDI into Media Express.
    I can use LiveView and get monitor output with Resolve.
    In Premiere Pro preferences, Device Control I can see 'Blackmagic Device Control'.
    But I can't get any capture in Premiere Pro.  Following the directions in Desktop Video Manual February 2014, as I setup a new project in Premiere Pro, I click on ‘Settings’ under ‘capture’, but get no feedback.  If I proceed into a project, go to capture, I see no video from the connected camera.
    Any advice would be wonderful.  I’m trying to use this system for a green screen shoot on Monday.

  • Get 4 audio channels out through SDI whit BlackMagic UltraStudio Express

    Hi,
    We have some issues with the Blackmagic UltraStudio Express and Premiere Pro.
    We need to get out 4 audio channels through SDI for different broadcast and news feeds. We can't do that with the UltraStudio Express on different Mac Book Pro (one on OS 10.9 and one on 10.8.5) with Premiere pro CC and Premiere pro CS6. (We have try with the driver 9.9.3 and 9.6.8). The only thing we manage to monitor out of the UltraStudio is 2 audio channels.
    We know it "could" work as :
    - We are able with the same setup to get 4 audio channels via FCP 7.0
    - We are able with a Mac Pro OS10.8.5 + Blackmagic Decklink HD Extreme 2 (driver 9.6.8) to get 4 audio channels with Adobe Premiere CC
    Do you have maybe a solution for this ?
    Have a nice day !
    Best regards

  • Playback with Blackmagic Ultrastudio Express Thunderbolt

    Hello,
    I'm using a MacBook Pro, a Blackmagic Ultrastudio Express Thunderbolt, and Premiere Pro CC 2014.  Under preferences I've set playback to BlackMagic playback.  When I connect a monitor to the ultra studio express I can get playback from the sources but not from the program.  I'm trying to output a green screen composite.  I've got the composite completed in the program viewer within Premiere, I've rendered the effect, but it won't play out to the external monitor.  But if I double click on either tracks on the timeline, they will play out to the external monitor.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • External monitor will not sleep using 2012 MacBook Air and HDMI adapter

    I am running a HP 27xi (27" display) using the apple thunderbolt to HDMI adapter, and using a HDMI cable.
    ISSUE:
    I run my 2012 macbook air in "clamshell mode", and solely use the 27" display, which works great. Problem, is when the macbook goes to put the display to sleep, or sleep for the laptop, the display starts to go into power save mode, then flips back on... goes back into power save mode, repeats forever. I called HP, and they said the HDMI signal is not being turned off, hence why the screen keeps going ON, then power save, then repeat. If I shutdown the laptop, then the monitor goes off just fine.
    Anyone else ran into an issue with an external monitor NOT going to sleep when plugged into the HDMI adapter? Someone suggusted that I purchase a DVI-D adapter, and use that cable... but that sounds ridiculous. The HDMI adapter should absolutely work.
    My temporary fix is to turn off the monitor everytime (if i remember) otherwise the display is in this never ending loop of trying to shut down.
    And yes, the Macbook Air is 100% up to date with updates. DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!
    Joe

    Hello Joe,
    I definitely understand your concern regarding your external display not going to sleep and endlessly looping into power save mode when your MacBook Air is asleep. 
    I found an article with steps to troubleshoot issues with displays.  This article is for internal and external displays, so you can skip any steps referring to the internal display.  The following steps specifically stands out to me for the situation you are experiencing:
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.

  • Qosmio X70-A-11Q - HDMI Monitor doesn't work

    Hello
    I work on my Laptop with 2 external monitors. One is connected via VGA and the other via HDMI. That all worked fine until yesterday where my HDMI monitor couldn't be found.
    Things i already tested:
    I tested the moitor by connecting it with another computer and it worked (with HDMI), so the monitor can't be the issue.
    I also tried an other HDMI cable...didn't work ether.
    BIOS is updated to the latest version
    graphics driver from NVIDIA graphics card and from the standard intel graphics card are updated to the latest version.
    Also a strange thing: when im in the BIOS menu while having VGA plugged in the screen keeps turning black for 1-2 secounds and then turning on again
    Would be great to get some tips on what i can do :)
    thanks

    Hi
    Are you able to use the HDMI out port without connecting another additional monitor to the VGA port? Please check this because from my experience it should be possible to use either the VGA or HDMI port.
    However, I think the problem might be related to one of the graphic card driver.
    Why? Because I think that one video out port would be controlled by one graphic chip.
    In case you are using two monitors at the same time (VGA and HDMI) one video graphic card (nVidia or Intel) would control VGA port and the other HDMI port.
    I think you should reinstall the Intel display driver.
    First of all you should uninstall the installed Intel display driver from the system (do that in device manager). Then you should reboot the notebook. On the Toshiba EU driver page you would find the latest Intel driver v10.18.10.3308
    This driver is released for Win 8.1 as well as Win 8 and Win 7
    Would recommend you to install this version to fix the HDMI problem

  • FCP video monitoring through AJA's T-Tap or  UltraStudio Mini Monitor

    Hello,
    I'm working with dailies that are ProRes LT 2K resolution (2048 x 1152) for an offline cut. I'd like to use an HDTV 1080P for a video monitor (a regular HDTV, not a broadcast monitor). From what I understand, I can use either a T-Tap or an UltraStudio Mini Monitor converter to send video signals to the TV set from FCP.
    Before I start buying this stuff, I just want to confirm with people on this forum who has experience with these set ups. My question has 2 parts:
    1. Does this set up work or do I need to get other gears? (FCP out to converter through Thunderbolt and HDMI to HDTV)
    2. I'm leaning toward the UltraStudio Mini Monitor mainly because of cost. I don't foresee getting a 2K monitor any time soon, so I wouldn't need the T-Tap for that purpose. However, since I'm working with 2K materials, and the HDTV is 1080P, can the Mini Studio convert (or down-res) it to 1080?
    Thanks in advance.
    Thien

    I can only speak to the T-Tap...that's all I've tested.  It works great with FCP...and AJA works with 2K footage, scaling it down to 1080.  I'm not sure if the mini monitor does this, or if you need the Decklink 4K for that. 
    No other converters are needed.  That's all you need....either one.
    I will say that AJA has a better track record of compatibility...they seem to be the first ones there with drivers for the new software and updates, and the most stable with edit systems.  And their tech support is top notch. That, to me, is worth the extra cost. 
    Contact Tech Support at AJA.com and ask them if it will work wiht 2K footage in FCP...they'll give you an answer.

  • Multistream with Blackmagic UltraStudio Express on MacBook Pro

    Hey,
    I've got a MacBook Pro Late 2013 (2,6 GHz i7, 16GB Ram) and wanted to output 3 streams captured by a Blackmagic UltraStudio Express.
    But I'm afraid the streams doesn't get the full FPS and it stutters.
    Does anyone have a suggestion how to improve the performance??
    Kind regards

    Hi, I run Final Cut Studio 2 and Logic Studio on my MacBook Pro 2.33 Ghz computer. Either of the new ones will be fine as they have an even better video card than mine does. My 2.33 had a 160 Gb drive inside and was just a little too small for both programs so I installed a 320 GB drive.
    As far as playing music on it, iTunes is the way to go and all the songs are converted to either MP3 and AAC. If you plan to purchase music from the iTunes store than that is the way to go.
    One item to consider, I wish I had had the option of the really high def screen when I purchased my MBP.
    Good luck, I think you are really going to love the computer. Just be sure to protect it! I installed the Invisible Shield on my MBP, but there are other ways to protect it from damage. Best to get really good carrying case for it.
    Oh, and you didn't mention - 15.4" or 17". For me the 17" is the only way to go, unless you plan to attach it to an external monitor when using FCE.
