I just got a new Macbook Air and had an Ultrastudio SDI already. Unfortunatley, I can’t get MediaExpress or Camtwist to see it. Likely, they will need to firmware update the Ultrastudio with a Mac compatible embedded driver.

Hi,

There will need to be a driver release from us to support USB 3.0 on the Mac. We’re looking into this.

Same problem with a just-bought Intensity Shuttle USB 3.0 and new macbook air, any chance on making it work?

I am also extremely interested in this. More specifically, the ability to make a 3rd party USB 3.0 card in a MacPro work with the UltraStudio SDI setup.

Any updates or more info on a possible update that would make this possible?

Thanks!

Oh no – it has been a year since the last post about this issue – thats not a good sign…

With issues like this, I would like to know little details from blackmagic, like:
is there an engineer assigned to this problem,
does he/she work on this problem daily,
are they waiting on some other company to give them something they need (like apple),
is there an alpha version that only works sometimes – can we have access to it?
has development been abandoned?
