  • Driver versions for Decklink & Hdlink with V8?

    Posted by Andrew Smith on August 16, 2011 at 3:38 pm

    Hello

    Just curious which drivers I should have installed for V8? I have an Extreme3D (not +) that is currently at 7.9.5 and an HDlink3D (displayPort) that just asked to update firmware automatically.

    thank you

    I once asked this to BMs support department, and they said they recommend the driver that installs with Resolve, because they specifically design it for the application.

    I’m not sure if that situation has changed but that’s what I go by.

    yeah thats what I figured too but just wanted to make sure because the version did not change when I upgraded to V8 from 7.1 and of course i noticed that there are newer Decklink driver versions on the BMD website.

    And if you wanna use the latest Media Express (which is great) , you need to install 8.2.1b.
    I am running it under Lion and have not noticed any problems yet.
