    This is what google gave me in the first hit. 🙂
    I’m confused. The BMD tech guy told me it doesnt support it. And now you can do 1080p 25 just by turning of fields (to progressive)?

    If you developpers can add this in a heartbeat, I am begging on my knees, please add this ‘little’ feature!!! I dont wanna buy AJA instead of BMD. (They support it).

    We just bought a JVC lcd broadcast monitor. https://pro.jvc.com/prof/attributes/features.jsp?model_id=MDL101631&feature_id=01
    Here we wanna preview all our 1080p 25 work on.

    If someone from BMD is reading this. Please reply or mail me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Regards
    M.

    I could not agree more.

    I have tried for two days to get my Decklink HD Pro to capture on a Win XP machine.

    No way.

    As you say, on the BlackMagic website it says you just set the capture to be 1080i/50 and it will work. see, as you say, :https://www.blackmagic-design.com/support/detail.asp?techID=107

    In which they say:
    “Does DeckLink HD support HDTV1080p/25 in Final Cut Pro?
    We deliberately do not include a 1080p 25Hz easy setup although it would be easy to do as the card is programmable. Most people use 1080i/50 with both interlaced and progressive video. There is a 1080p 25Hz format but it’s incredibly rare and we haven’t had many requests for it. We haven’t included a 1080p easy setup for 25Hz as it would cause confusion and DeckLink users would then use the wrong easy setup in many cases. We could add 1080p 25Hz support in a heart beat if required.”

    It does not work – setting 1080i/50 still captures interlaced frames. Believe me, I’ve tried everything. It simply does not work.

    BMD think 1080p/25 is very rare! We and the rest of Europe use it!!!!!!! Please BMD, will you add 1080p/25?
