    Posted by Matt Stalker on October 4, 2010 at 9:05 pm

    Hi,

    Same test clip (blackmagic .avi, 1920×1080, 29.97fps)…
    Plays fine in PPro CS3.
    Plays fine in BmD Media Express.
    Won’t play in PPro CS4.
    Won’t play in PPro CS5.

    I can replicate the problem across multiple machines in our facility. Any known issues or troubleshooting ideas?

    Hi Matt,

    If you generate bars and tones from within the CS4 or CS5 apps, do they play out?

    Did you install the Blackmagic Design drivers AFTER installing the CS4/5 suites?

    regards

    Hi Kristian,

    No, internally generated clips (bars/tone, counting leader) in PPro CS4, CS5 do not play at HD1080.

    Yes, we’ve installed the device drivers after the software.

    Suggestions?

    1920×1080 29.976p and 59.95i play fine on my Decklink Studio, but 1920×1080 59.94p does not play or output.

    [Jeff Kosmicki] “1920×1080 29.976p and 59.95i play fine on my Decklink Studio, but 1920×1080 59.94p does not play or output.

    This is expected behaviour. The DeckLink Studio does not support 1080p50 or 1080p59.94.

    Hi Matt, that’s strange indeed. Do you have all CS3, CS4 and CS5 on the same system? If that’s the case, I wonder if there’s a conflict somewhere.

    Hi Kristian,

    I can replicate the problem on a machine with CS4 only. Here’s something interesting. I can only replicate the issue on machines with Multibridge Extreme units, not on machines with Multibridge Pros. Further suggestions?
