Black Magic Decklink & Logic X

Hello,
My Decklink PCI card wasn't reconised in logic 9 64bit -
I don't see a option to route video to external device in the Logic X -
How are you supposed to score something feature length in logic when running stuff natively is a drag on the CPU and Pro Tools HD works great with the Decklink.
Hopefully this can be solved!
Cheers,
Matt

Mr. Bowen.  Thanks for the quick response.  Settings in Premier are limited.  The BM board has its own control panel.  But here is the setup:
NTSC, 29:97, RS422 machine control, use capture time code.
Premier takes in our HD P2 material just fine.  Also just about every flavor of AVCHD.  Trouble is we use a ton of vintage footage originating from RS422 machines: everything from s-vhs, ¾” and BetaCamSP.  Bottom line is it crashes EVERY time we try to use the capture function.  There’s machine control, but no capture window showing.  Obvious driver conflicts of some kind.   ☹

  • Premiere Pro 5.5 + Black Magic Decklink Mini Monitor Issues

    I have been running Ppro 5.5 on a windows 7 x64 machinine without issues. However, I added a Black Magic Decklink mini monitor recently. I am having issues of time line stopping at certain native transition effects like cross disolve and premier freezing crashing to blue screen when using black magic Ppro presets.
    When I changed the render mode to 'Software only' things improved. However, still face freezing intermittently but frequency is much less.
    I also use ASIO4all audio driver to monitor, though when I use BM presets sound is played through HDMI.
    My configuration is as below:
    Processor: Intel quad core i7 2600 K @ 3.40 GZ
    Memory: 8 GB
    Display Card: Nvidia Quardo 2000d
    OS: Windows 7 Professional x64
    Edit Software: Adobe Production Premium CS 5.5 (PPro patch loaded)
    SSD 128 GB system hard drive
    2 TB Media Drive Internal
    Audio Interface: Mackie Tapco Firelink (not used when using Black Magic Ppro Presets)
    Audio Driver: ASIO4ALL (not used when using Black Magic Ppro Presets)
    Could any of you give some idea what could be wrong here?

    I have not used a Mini Monitor on CS5.5  (I have used others) but BM cards did work differently with CS5.5 to CS6, when Mercury Transmit was introduced.  They did not do realtime effects as well (as you are finding) and only output from Blackmagic sequences.  So most of the problems you are having, apart from the crashing, are normal.  The BM card is also seen as a sound card so it could be set to do the sound for the system, or for Premiere, even though the picture is not being transmitted (check the audio hardware preferences in Premiere to see which is being used for sound).
    The crashes could be related to graphic card drivers.  CS5.5 won't be programmed to use the latest nVidia drivers, and we have had problems using the latest (300 series drivers) with CS5.5. which only show up with hardware (Blackmagic/Matrox etc) but work in software mode. The fact that you get crashes with effects may also point to this.  Try downgrading the quadro drivers and see what happens - to a version like 275 or 296 rather than a 300 series driver. 

  • Black Magic Decklink Studio 2 and CS6

    Hi, all.  I've been doing this for years and am always amazed at how complicated it is capturing video and audio with Premier.  Now, with CS6 and Black Magic Design's Decklink Studio2, it's no different.  The Black Magic capture utility works fine, but Premier won't recognize the card and it's drivers.  I can't build a capture list, but use the BMD utility to capture video for editing. 
    Experience says reload drivers.  I  did that.  Also loaded latest BMD drivers.  Still no capture in Premier.  One giant challenge is our company's IT department retains admin rights to this Windows7 64 bit Dell Precision 7730.  I have to open a trouble ticket to change or load anything! 
    Anyway, any thoughts on this would be much appreciated.

  • Capturing at 24 fps with Black Magic Decklink Studio

  • Distorted audio out of Black Magic Decklink

    Using a PowerMac G5 with a Blackmagic Decklink card the playback audio/out from the timeline is distorted. During capture, audio/in is fine. All led levels read fine, even the audio/out playback from FCP and into a Panasonic DVC Pro 650 is fine. We've updated FCP to 5.1 and Decklink's drivers to 5.1.1. Even reformatted the G5, reinstalled the OS, with a fresh install of FCP Studio. And still the audio playback from the timeline is distorted. Thoughts?

    You need to troubleshoot this one step by step. Start by capturing bars and tone from tape. Set the level, note the LEDs that are lit, capture, and then open that clip in the Viewer. Play and note the LEDs that are lit. Is it the same, or at least close to the level captured?
    If so, then edit the clip into a new sequence and play. Same level or different?
    If all that is consistent, then tell us what the signal path is from the G5 to your external audio monitors, so we can help you from that point.

  • Black Magic Decklink not working on mac

    I switched recently from final cut pro to premiere. However the blackmagic decklink videocard is not working. That is i can monitor the clips via the card in the viewer but not from the timeline. So i can't monitor my work anymore.
    Does anybody have a clue what to do?

    You have to select a Blackmagic Sequence preset to initialize the Blackmagic card in the Program monitor. I/O cards in Adobe will not initialize if you dont select one of their sequences. It's not like Final Cut where you can just select or change your output to the card.

  • Upgrading from 4.5 to 5.0 w/Black Magic

    I have attempted a FCP upgrade from 4.5 to 5.0. I have a Black Magic Decklink video card and have installed the newest version 5 from their website. I can open FCP 5, however I do not have Sony PVW-2800 deck control nor can I select any of my A/V settings to be that of Black Magic. When I first installed FCP 5, a warning came up saying that I did not have the right codec. What in the world is going on?

    Did you install the Black Magic upgrade after the FCP upgrade? I believe FCP 5 needs to be in place first.

  • Soundtrack Pro (randomly?) disables my Black-Magic card I use as Sound Card

    I uprgraded to 5.1 FCP and now my woes begin. Before Sountrack worked seamelessly. But now, sometimes it will play back (be audible) through the video card I use as my sound card also - a Black-Magic Decklink, and sometimes it won't. It does play though the internal speaker.
    But on a few occasions, with no apparent intervention on my part, the sound does come via the sound card.
    I have gone to my general preference, I have gone to Sountrack Preferences. I have tried the manual, but the manual search, you know, doesn't ever list any searches that bear at the moment at hand.
    Also, Soundtrack Pro disables the card. for instance, to hear iTunes through the card, I had to quit Soundtrack Pro. Of course Apple wants to charge me for "help" with this. For myself, no idea, very stymied.

    I also have the intensity settings in the mac system preferences set to y, r-y, b-y video & analog RCA Audio.
    I am still stumped!

  • How do I get Premiere Pro to reconize my Black Magic video card?

    I'm trying to set up CS6 but Premiere doesn't reconize my Black Magic video card. Can someone help?

    I have a Blackmagic Decklink Extreme HD Card. Copied All Files from Blackmagic Installation folder ( C:\Program Files (x86)\Blackmagic Design\Blackmagic Desktop Video\Premiere Support ) to appropriate folders in Premiere install folder and everything Started worked fine. Looks like a installation bug by Blackmagic. If it helps please mark as useful. thanks.

  • Black Magic and Warp Stabilizer

    I am working with 6.0, Footage is P2, Sequence is Black Magic Progressive @ 29.97 / 1920x1080. Black Magic board is Decklink 3d Extreme.
    Black Magic Drop Down in "New Sequence Setting Box" shows no 1280x1080 option which is P2.  All Black Magic options are 1920x1080, progressive or interlaced.
    When I drop the Warp Stabilizer onto a clip (P2) I get the message:
    "Warp Stabilizer requires clip dimensions to match sequence"
    How do I get around this, using the Black Magic Sequence and P2 footage?

    With CS6, you shouldn't.  Any sequence should output via the hardware just fine.  Though I've never used that hardware, so I can't comment specifically on how to get that going.  See if this helps.

  • That old Black Magic that you weave so well ... the best?

    We have a bunch of Mac Pros (2 x 2 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon, 2 GB RAM)at the school where I teach. We want to try HiDef. Is the Black Magic Intensity card the best for HDMI in and out? If we had that card and an HD TV with HDMI, would that be all we need?

    That is the ONLY option for HDMI...well, the cheapest. The Decklink Multibridge has HDMI too, but that is more expensive. And you can use the Intensity to capture from the HDMI port of the cameras too...if you want to shoot on a set and avoid the HDV compression that is laid onto tape.

    In my opinion, if the driver of your new BlackMagic card are compatible
    with your operative system, and installed correctly, FMLE uses it as any
    other peripheral, so it should work.
    Maybe you can ask to their support to be sure...

  • Black Magic card

    Forum,
    I see many references to Black Magic card.
    What is it?
    What does it do?
    Michael Craven.

    They, like the AJA cards, capture video that is not capturable via firewire. Also, they can output proper signals to monitors for proper color grading.

  • Black magic card a/v settings for capture??????????????????????

    So I have a black magic intensity pro card. I am trying to use it with my JVC HDV 720p 60fps camcorder. I know I need to lower the setting to have it actually work without a ton of raid cards and so I have the "A/V Settings" set to:
    Sequence preset: Black magic HDTV 720p 60 - Jpeg
    Capture preset: Black magic HDTV 720p 60 - Jpeg
    Device Control preset: Non-controlable device
    Which is what everything I have read has said to do, but it refuses to work I get an error saying there is no video coming through the audio meeter does not even bounce in preview. It is not the cables I have tested both. What else could it be?

    I also have the intensity settings in the mac system preferences set to y, r-y, b-y video & analog RCA Audio.
    I am still stumped!

  • Adobe not allowing import of XML file captured from Media Express through Black Magic capture card

    I have been going crazy trying to find a way to import the XML files to fix the digitized look Adobe capture gave my footage. Someone help me
    These are not XML from Final Cut. They are files saved from Media Express, a Black magic design program used for Capturing.
    THANK YOU.
    Please email me if you know how to fix this
    [email protected]
    THANKS AGAIN!

    Wouldn't it be more appropriate to open the actual media files captured with the program?
