    Hi,

    get a bnc to rca connector and plug it to your
    y video out cable on your decklink , connect to your tv,
    it the win version is the same as the mac, got to your
    BM control Panel, select video output through Y out and
    you should be all setup

    Sorry Olivier, that’s not correct. The Decklink Pro has no analog output – you cannot connect the Pro to anything unless it has an SDI input. You can purchase SDI-Analog convertors, but frankly I’d be more inclined to replace the card for a Decklink Extreme.

    Euhm, the decklink pro has component YUV output, which you can configure to be a composite output on the “Y” connector.

    The regular decklink is the only SD card that has no analog out.

    You’re absolutely right, and I am absolutely wrong. Temporary brain collapse from too many light nights… (slinks off sheepishly…)
