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.

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. ☹

Capturing at 24 fps with Black Magic Decklink Studio

I keed capturing video at 24 fps. I would rather be at 29.97 fps. How do I get to that level. The black magic is set to NTSC.

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.

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 ultra studio 4K

Friends,
Can anyone tell me the real advantages of using an external video card like blackmagic ultra studio 4K?
I'm using FInal Cut Pro X in my 27" 3.2 Ghz iMac witha 32GB of memory.
Normally I work with 4K / 5K RED footages.
Do you think it speeds up the video processing if we use an ultra studio 4K?
My doubt is other than the multiple output options, will it do an extra processing for an application like Final Cut Pro X?
Thanks in Advance,
Sreekumar

let me clarify this.
since I'm working with 4K or 5K images and my projector is a 1920*1080, if I use an ultra studio 4K, the images appearing will have more detail than connecting through my display port? is the how pixel-by-pixel works?
the monitor I;m using is a 2560*1440 resolution. which is better? connecting though the display port or through the ultra studio 4K?
Whats the real advantage of using this card when I use Final Cut Pro X for colour grading.
Will this card acts like an internal card we used earlier?

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

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!

CS6 Premier Pro and Black Magic Intensity Pro not working?

Hi,
I am using the trial version of CS6 Premier pro. First the Playback settings in the drop down menu next to the viewer is greay out. Second, when I go into the playback setting through the settings menu I dont see the Black Magic as an option to send my signal out to. Is this a limitation of the trial version?
I have updated everything and the Black Magic works perfect with my CS5 and Final Cut Pro.. Any clues?

Hi Javier,
The new Mercury Transmit plug-ins from Blackmagic and other hardware partners are selected in a different way than the previous player plug-ins from CS5.5 and earlier. To turn on transmit, go to the Preferences, in the Playback area. There, if the plug-ins for your third-party hardware are installed correctly, you'll see options for the Audio Device and Video Device. Once you select the third-party hardware there, it can be used across sequences and projects. If the transmit plug-in provides a setup dialog for additional options, you'll see a small setup option on the right side of the Video Device option.
And of course, make sure that you have applied the latest CS6 updates, and are using the latest installer from Blackmagic for CS6.
Cheers,
Zac

Black magic and Adobe After effect cs6 Ram Preview not real time

Hello,
I'm on a MAC PRO with the OS 10.6.8 and 8Go Ram, the problem is when i turn on my preview video on the Blackmagic the video monitor is not in real time and the after effect is so slow. When i put it off (computer monitor only) it's ok but i havn't my video monitor of course....and i need it. Is there some tricks for having my black magic (1080 i 50) ON and a RAM Preview in real time ??? ! My drivers Black magic is the 9.5.3 it's the highest driver for MAC OS 10.6.8 + ADOBE CS6+ FCP7. Thanks for the read. ( i tried update adobe, change qt library, change aspect ratio, pixel, preview ram settings, change drivers black magic and other but nothing work )

What is the color bit depth of your project? (8, 16 or 32?) Have you changed that recently, or have you changed the frame rate or frame size of your comp?
Performance with video preview to an external monitor is almost always related to the pure bandwidth requirements of the frames you're sending to it. If the frames require more memory, it may be slower. Frame size, frame rate, and color bit depth all affect the memory requirements of the frames.
If none of those parameters has changed, troubleshoot the general performance of your machine. If there are other processes (look in Activity Monitor) that are using significant processor and/or memory resources, they may be causing a bottleneck for the frames getting out.

Premiere Pro CS6 Issues with AJA and Black Magic

Has anyone had any issues outputting via AJA and Black Magic cards?
I have 3 Macs using Black Magic Intesnsity Pro HDMI cards and 1 Mac using an AJA IO Express. On all the machines, i get weird audio issues intermitantly. I press play, no audio comes out. I stop, press play again, no audio comes out but the PP VU meter is registering. I stop, and press play again, and i hear distortion coming from my speakers, i stop and play again, and everything is fine. These issues are consitantly happening, but not necisarily in that order. I also get out of sync audio, then stop and press play again, and its all good.
I fell as though i have narrowed it down to being between PP and the IO cards, because if i turn the cards off in PP, my audio is fine everytime.
I have the propper Premiere Pro drivers (for AJA) and all the latest firmware and drivers for black magic. I am playing Quicktime media, usually Apple Pro Res hq or 444. IO and data rate with same codecs works perfectly in FCP. I have also tried using media that is local as opposed to on our server.
Has anyone had issues with this? Is this a known bug with in PP? Will it ever get fixed???
Thanks.

I have expereinced this issue on my Mac Pro right before I switched to a PC.

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.

Black Magic Intensity Pro Card & Final Cut Studio

I'm in the process of purchasing a Mac Pro to use for my New Wedding Video Business. I have purchsed the New Sony HVR-HD1000. I'm looking to get everything at one time and something has me very confused. I hope that someone can please help me.
As I understand it. I take my New Sony HD Cam via Firewire800 and Final Cut Studio will just suck it all in.
If thats the case, What is the need for products such as the "Black Magic Intensity Pro Card"?
Do I need it when my Mac Pro/Final Cut will import my footage anyways?
Please help me make a sound decision.
Thank you for your time.

No disrespect taken. I might not be very technical but some times I wonder if I'm doing the right thing.
Maybe some history will help explain my situation.
I have a old cheap-o hand held Sony SD Mini DV Cam that I used all year to puts around with. As a test of my skills went to weddings and events for fun. All of these events had "Professional Videographers" I was just here for fun with my little camera.
For fun I would turn in my little DVD and the response was incredible. Even though my footage sucked compared to all the "Pro Cameras" being used it was my skills in editing, having fun with the video, and using lots of Motion graphics and titles. I became so popular that people wanted me to actually film events as a paid rig!
With no training what so ever and just tinkering with Final Cut Studio - I have a long list of "word of mouth" gigs with people waiting for me to film for them.
My parents then decided to give me a few gifts. (1) Sony HVR-HD 1000 and (2) JVY GY100HD Cameras. I now have all the gear I need. I never owned cameras like this before so as I started looking into getting a Mac Pro - All these questions came to mind.
My point is - I used a POS camera and consumers ate it all up. I didnt worry about "Color Space" or ProRess anything. I just imported as DV - edit the footage - have fun with it - burn it on DVD and call it a day.
I'm just seriously asking - now that I have nice cameras that didnt cost me a dime - cant I just continue the same way I have been with my POS camera?
Is anything more than just Firewire800 to my Mac really that critical for Weddings on SD DVD's?
