I am using 10.4.3 for my BMD device without any trouble (usual configuration in FCPX ) OSX 10.10.5 , FCPX 10.2.3

Thanks Francois. What BMD I/O are you running? Do you experience any playback issues like lagging or sticking frames?

[Francois Jean]

It is an old “Intensity Extreme”, I am mostly using the HDMI output … and everything is great except when Skimming, I use a Matrox MXO2 for SDI output and it is also working fine.

Are you running those I/O devices over Thunderbolt or USB?

Thanks

[Francois Jean]

Thunderbolt , USB device were originally only certified on windows …

Me too with my Ultrastudio Express… I use this unit to play content out to Giant Video Screens at major events, using content assembled in FCP X…

You can imagine how much fun it was to be playing content in front of thousands of people to then see X crash on playback…. or even when you play content through a broadcast monitor to one of your clients…

Yet again, Blackmagic needs to sharpen up with their product support and bug fixes.

Dean You should really try the AJA t-tap for your live gigs. I find it to work much better than The ultra studio mini in my setup when running FCPX. Back when it did work that is.

It would be nice to not have to crawl under the desk to plug in the mini every time I want to use Resolve but that does not look like it’s going to happen soon

Just installed 10.4.1 and still no video output from FCPX.
