    Can anybody tell me how to preview my photo on the external monitor using DL Extreme? I’m using Photoshop CS2 and when I try to Export -> Send Video Preview to Device, it tells me no device connected. I’ve tried other software (FCP, AE, Soundtrack Pro, combustion) all work fine. Please advise.

    I neglected to mention that I’m using Decklink 5.0 drivers for Mac.

    I’m having the same problem, and have posted twice on the subject. So far no answers. Not even a reply from BM

    It’s working for me. I’m also using the version 5 drivers, but I have a Decklink sp.

    Hi,

    The correct option should be Export > Blackmagic Image Export….

    Can you check if DeckLink Importer and DeckLink Exporter are in the Import/Export folder. Import/Export is located within Photoshop’s plug-in folder. If they are not in there, then it may not be installed correctly. Do a search system wide for the 2 files and move them there.

    Kristian,

    You rock. Found my files in Application Support / Blackmagic Design / Blackmagic Decklink. Copied them over to Photoshop and it’s all good now.

    Thanks,

    Hi Dennis,

    I did a search on my computer to find those files. I’m not sure if spotlight can find it but I used the search in finder to get those files. Hope that helps.

    Cheers,
