    Does anyone know how to tell what version of
    Blackmagic codecs are installed on a G5.
    I have a G5 with a Kona SD card and Blackmagic Codecs
    but do not know if they are the proper version.
    Thanks

    Hi,

    Chances are that you aren’t using Blackmagic codecs at all. Please refer to the Kona SD support note for latest information regarding drivers for use with Panther and Tiger. Either way, you will be using the Apple codecs in standard definition as we’ve adopted them in standard definition ever since releasing our v4.x drivers.

    If you want to be sure you have the latest drivers and codecs, just use the uninstaller in the v4.8 or 5.0 drivers and then run the v4.8 installer for Panther or the v5.0 installer for Tiger.

    If you want to double-check the version, go to your startup hard disk, and open the folder System/Library/Extensions/ and look for the file called Blackmagic_Driver or something similar. You can do a Get Info on it to find the version installed.

    Regards,
