  • Decklink Directshow Output with other applications

    Posted by Alan Scott on January 12, 2008 at 11:24 am

    I know when I was using a Matrox APVe I could use pretty much any directshow based player/application and simultaneously output the avi video to an SD Monitor (with some caveats on the color space used).

    Is this possible with the Decklink (I’m using the HD Extreme)?

    PPro 2.0 is working fine, but can’t seem to get the same avi to output through MPC or a few other players.

    Is there something that needs to be enabled?

    Thanks.

    So I take it this isn’t a built in supported feature.

    May I ask what the conflict with the Matrox APVe and BM Decklink cards are?

    ALL Matrox cards are being listed as incompatible but is this due to no testing done, software or hardware conflict?

    I only ask about the Matrox as it’s the only card on the market that allows dual head DVI with a third separate Video Out for this purpose. And it works.

    ATI Theater Mode and Nvidia’s equivalent have had some long standing bugs and only provide a single monitor + video out capability.
