Kona 2 and Blackmagic codecs
Hello,
We moved to a Kona 2 from Kona SD. With the Kona SD we were using the Blackmagic drivers. But since we moved to the Kona 2 with the 1.10 drivers from Aja, the projects created with the Kona SD (using Blackmagic codec 10 bit) are very unstable. Is there an incompatibility between the two? (meaning Blackmagic codecs and Kona 2). Because I can not accept that Aja will not support their legacy products…
thanks,
Jeff

Supposedly, all BM media can be read via the Apple 10-bit codec without any problem. when I switched over from Kona HD to Kona2, I still had a few leftover clips done in BM. No problem, generally, although there were a couple of moments when the luminance levels were incorrect. Some other people who experienced the same thing say it is a QT issue.
Hate to say this, but did you read the readme that said that the BM codec was now considred a “conflict” before you installed the K2?
Actually, I’m glad they are off the BM codec since I would rather have a piece of hardware running of its own codec rather than its competitor’s.
