  You simply run the component outputs from your beta to the component inputs of your digibeta. Also run the xlr audio out from the beta into the digi. Make sure that on the digi deck you swith the video input switch from SIF to component. I do this all the time with my setup. Works like a charm.

  Hi

  We support SDI embedded audio. Make sure the audio output is set to SIF and you will be able to capture both video and audio together.

  Thank you for such a quick response!

  Am I correct in assuming that the ‘DeckLink Audio Device’ overrides a PC’s onboard audio output?

  I am using an Intel D975XBX motherboard and can’t seem to get any sound out via the motherboards speaker jack.

  Cheers
