  Blackmagic Decklink SP(legacy hw) not working edit to tape with FCP on Mac OSX 10.6+

  Posted by Martin Luknar on November 15, 2012 at 3:21 pm

  Hi,

  after switching to newer OSX(10.5.8->10.6.8), because of minimum requirements of adobe CS6, my card suddenly stopped working with the deck.
  card: Blackmagic Decklink SP pcie
  deck: Sony DVW-500P

  I’m using reference output from Sigma BSG-26A ref generator, but since switching, the card cant lock to the deck. It detects signal input from generator after restart, but after ~10s loses signal and cant lock with the deck. I tried all drivers from 8.0 to 9.6.8, tried to change offsets, but it wont work. I’ve also tried to switch to 10.7 and 10.8, but ended with no difference.
  Blackmagic and Apple doesn’t answer my e-mails.
  This proglem also happened to my freelancing colleague, he lost his hope and bought AJA Kona 3…

  The only workaround I have is everytime when I am editing to tape or loging from tape, I have to switch to 10.5. It is really annoying.

  Thanks for any kinds of help,
