Not your normal Decklink Question (Hey Luke!!)
Well we have been running our decklink card for a week streaming telecine sessions over the net. Problem is it needs to be reset every couple of hours. So my streaming service guy said check your drivers it sounds like a memory leak. So I did, and wow a week old card that came with 4.4 drivers. I went to install the new drivers and blam!! only works in XP. Problem is this is a server. Hence “Streaming Server” Please don’t tell me that after many phone calls emails and confirmation with blackmagic you made the drivers not work on on Windows Server 2000. It took me months to get Black magic approved as the facility wide replacement card for injest and output. Now the first one to go online suddenly wont work with the machine it was intended for.

Why are you running Windows Server 2000 ? Most multimedia-server applications I know run either Windows 2000 PRO or XP PRO …
It’s not the OS that is important !-Yves

Windows streaming service Runs more reliably in server 2000 or server 2003 than on XP. I am not even sure you can load the streaming service in XP. Then Iwould have to have 2 boxxes just to stream telecine sessions. 1 with the decklink pitching the stream to a streaming server. I can do it with one box with a cheap card, but we wanted to standardize all video input cards on blackmagic.

FYI, I think Luke is a Mac guy. You probably want Matt.
