OSX 10.5.2 and QuickTime 7.4.1 – does it play nice with Decklink?
Would be great to get a official word from Blackmagic if we should wait for a driver update or not. There’s also a ‘Leopard Graphics Update 1.0’ to consider.
Got a DeckLink HD Extreme with my new MacPro and is really pleased with it so far and don’t want to ruin the experience with a incompatible OS/QT update 🙂

That sounds good but as far as I understand the drivers for Decklink and Multibridge are different and I’m bit wary from past experiences with upgrades to taking a chance. I’ve put in a support request at their site and will await a reply.

I just spoke with a Black Magic tech guy and he said there are no known issues with the Decklink/Multibride hardware and OS 10.5.2 and Quicktime 7.4.1. I’m running the Black Magic 6.6.2 drivers for Multibridge Pro. I’m updating now and will let you know my results.

Well, I cloned my entire system drive for backup with SuperDuper and upgraded to 10.5.2, QT 7.4.1 and the Leopard Graphic Update yesterday. So far all things seem to work, can capture and view in FCP and have a preview in AE to my PAL monitor. Sound input through the Decklink card to other applications than FCP disappeared but running the AudioMIDI utility and setting the input there instead of the simple system sound panel fixed that.
I’ve yet to get a reply on my support ticket though so it’s good to hear you got a answer from BMD that all seems to be in order. If I run into any trouble I will report here.
cheers
