  Posted by Oliver Petz on January 12, 2010 at 2:55 pm

  after the last years i can told you black-magic-guys your drivers driving me crazy! so many bug all over the
  time ( example: unable to use blackmagic decklink extreme with 3 montitors ) it is pain in the a.. to work
  with this buggy drivers.
  for that reason i changed to avid. but there was one good feature on your cards that works also properly:

  EXTENDED DESKTOP.

  AND NOW YOU KILL THE EXTENDED DESKTOP FEATURE?

  this was one of the main features for me to buy a decklinkcard again.
  for 3 months i buyed the decklink extreme3 because my old decklink does not run anymore under X64BIt with

  8GB Ram. today i install the the driver because my videopreview freeze in AE all the time, and see thatyou kill the feature extended desktop! i use this function every for example with cinema4d.
  in cinema i have a live “pal-preview” and can see how it looks like on television. this is perfect for

  testrenderings.

  or if you play any videostuff with a mediaplayer. i dont have to start everytime premiere or after effects.

  just drop the player to the extended decktop.perfect.

  now i payed a lot of money for your card and one of the important features is killed.

  this is unbeleaveble. you cards are a nighmare for me, the drivers are so bad for years, many bug has been

  never fixed and so on.this was definately the last time i bought “professional equiment” from blackmagic-design

  please can somebody tell me what is the last driver-verion with extended monitor?? thank you 🙂
