  What exactly is Framelink?!? (SORRY)

  Posted by Jimmy Brunger on October 18, 2006 at 4:08 pm

  Hi,

  Just recently got a Decklink Pro for monitoring only, as my system is not quite fast enough (I don’t think?..) for capture/playback aswell.

  However, after a suggestion by a colleague today I was keen to test if it DOES work, or at least if deck control and still frame capture/playback does…

  I ideally want to be able to control a digibeta deck and grab still frames from it as TGAs or similar. Also ideally I like to be able to lay of still frames back to tape/to edit suites (again as TGA sequences ideally)

  Is this possible via a combination or Deck Control and Framelink?

  I can’t seem to find any info on exactly what Framelink is! And without admin rights I can’t seem to open the app..

  I currently use a DVS Clipstation for grabbing/laying off frames, but there is no deck control – which would help a great deal!

  Thanks.
