Color shift problem with After Effects, Blackmagic and Tiger

That’s OK. Hopefully, you’ve been burning the midnight oil getting the Multibridge with PCI express ready instead of hanging around here at the COW 😉 I’m hoping to get a few of those when they are available….

Thanks again-

O.k. I spoke too soon. I hadn’t tried it with an external monitor – just by looking at FCPs internal scope that now looked correct. I had the same issue as Chris – there was no more output with the FCPUncompressed422.component removed.

Reinstalling BM 5.0 seems to replace version 1.2 with 1.1, but for me the results are still the same. . . Since I can’t render to the BM10bit codec from AE, I am still getting a gamma boost. What am I supposed to remove exactly to fix things? How can I render to the BM10 codec from AE?

Thanks,
Felix

Hi,

Here’s an interim workaround in order to maintain external video playout.

When you download the codec from our website. Rename Blackmagic Codec.component to Blackmagic Codec1.component

Move Blackmagic Codec1.component to /Library/Quicktime and remove FCP Uncompressed 422.component

Thanks – that seems to work. However, this also seems to remove all RT funcitons from FCP5.02. Is that correct?

Thanks for the help.
