24@25.. when will Decklink support this ?
Working with 24@25 (in the PAL world) does not work with Decklink. Using a dv deck and firewire everything works smooth… BUT it’s a bit annoying to have a dv deck tied up with the workstation when I have a decklink card installed.
Any plans on supporting this Decklink guys ?

I’m curious. What part of 24@25 does not work with Decklink. I too work in 24@25 with footage telecine’d to DV. But I think even if the footage was on BetacamSP or DigiBeta, you could capture it via your Decklink as 8-bit or again DV using the Blackmagic PAL – DV setting and then convert it to 24 in CinemaTools.
In fact we have created our own Blackmagic PAL – 8bit 24 @ 25 and Blackmagic PAL – 10bit 24 @ 25 setting for film related work.
What does not work is that footage conformed to 24 when played through the Decklink card has a large 24+1 judder. We’ve resolved it by setting Playback control to 24@25 repeat and using the “Use Playback Settings” control in the timeline shortcut menu. That takes care of the judder.
THIS HAS REFERENCE ONLY TO PAL 24@25. NTSC IS NOT AFFECT AFAIK.
Sorry about the capitals, but every time I write this I have someone from an NTSC workflow telling me about 2:3:2:3 or something like that.Neil
