  • Need Color Bars with Pluge for Calibration through Deck Control

    Posted by Bizatch on April 16, 2006 at 10:40 pm

    Does anyone have color bars WITH pluge that I can run through Deck Control on a Mac? I don’t know how to calibrate my monitor with the bars that Blackmagic provides. I don’t have my actual deck hooked up through the system because I don’t have an RS-422 cable to hookup to the breakout cables that came with my Decklink HD Pro (Single Link).

    Do you have FCP? If so, use their bars, or make an uncompressed self contained movie of the FCP bars and use that in the future.

    Unfortunately, I think my card is bad.

    I had a DeckLink Pro card (SD) which exhibited the green tint when viewing files through the component out. I recently returned the card for replacement. Before removing the card I examined the luma, red, green, and blue histograms of a black and white file (captured with the card) using the software scopes in the After Effects plugin version of Color Finesse. After removing the card and the 5.5.1 drivers, I installed the 4.9 standalone codecs (available on the Blackmagic support page). I examined the histograms of the same file again. The histograms changed and the changes suggested a problem with the gain of the blue channel. (I haven

    Michael,

    Do you think this is a hardware problem or a software problem?
