July 15, 2010 at 5:22 pm in reply to: Is new Xbox 360 “Slim” HDCP-protected or not? Need to know fast 🙂I can not say one way or the other. However, I did hear “talk” that newer Xbox 360s now have HDCP on HDMI game streams as well as movies. Can say for sure that older 360s are HDCP for HDMI gaming. Isn’t HDCP great? Anyway, good luck!

Hi Joshua, thanks for the reply.
As a fallow up:1) Is HDMI Stereoscopic 3D capture something that will definitely be added in the near feature? Because when you say “we are hoping to add HDMI 3D capture” and “in this case it could be possible” it sounds like the hardware can do it, but it might not ever be added. Would hate to purchase the card and 3D HDMI capture ends up never being added. Also, keep in mind Nvidia, AMD/ATI, and Microsoft Xbox 360 are considering or have confirmed to be adding Stereoscopic 3D for their hardware and these have no HDCP for gaming.
2a) You seem to know about the inner workings of PlayStation 3, so you might also know that PlayStation 3 (along Xbox 360 and current generation graphics cards) all output their native gaming sources as RGB 8-Bit 4:4:4. Is the HDMI section of the DeckLink HD Extreme 3D hardware able to capture in RGB but it is just not supported v.i driver/software? If you can see what I am saying here, my sources are RGB 8-Bit 4:4:4 and I would rather not have to capture them as YUV 8 or 10 Bit 4:2:2 with a loss of half the video information. If I purchase the DeckLink HD Extreme 3D is RGB capture v.i HDMI something I could request or pay extra for? Is there a reason why BlackMagic has never supported RGB capture v.i HDMI when RGB is part of the HDMI specification?
2b) From what I understand RGB capture is only currently supported v.i SDI with DeckLink HD Extreme 3D and that is 10-Bit RGB 4:4:4 up to 1080p24?, correct? Is the DeckLink HD Extreme 3D hardware able to support 8-Bit RGB 4:4:4 or is just a software/driver limitation? If ever added/possible, would 8-Bit RGB allow for full 1080p60 capture?
3) The HDMI ports on the DeckLink HD Extreme 3D are 1.3, correct? Does that mean they support deep color? Also, has 480p capture support been implemented yet? And is that 480p support for all inputs or only hdmi and component and not sdi?
I hope my concerns can be looked into as I am looking for a card that allows me to capture free of limitations.
Thanks,
Aaron -

May 20, 2010 at 11:37 am in reply to: Intensity pro footage super slow and out of syncWhat is your hard-drive configuration like? Do you one drive for OS and one drive for capture or do you have one raid array? Also, are you capturing as uncompressed or compressed?

Not sure what is up with BlackMagic support lately, but I was jerked around for the latter end of this past week trying to get a response to my questions v.i e-mail (then after calling, them telling me they would respond but never do). If I don’t hear something come Monday or Tuesday I’ll just pass on the card altogether and take my business elsewhere.

April 18, 2010 at 7:13 pm in reply to: Blackmagic Intensity Pro Crashes to Blue Screen of DeathI have never had such a problem so don’t think I can be much help here. How many PCI/PCIe cards are installed in your computer and do you experience blue screens from anything else? If it still happens after a clean OS install, could be bad card or something else. Try calling BlackMagic tech support Monday.

April 18, 2010 at 11:50 am in reply to: Blackmagic Intensity Pro Crashes to Blue Screen of DeathI used to own a Intensity a long time ago and never had such a problem. First I would suggest moving the Intensity to a different PCIe slot (if possible), then backup all your files and do a full format of your hard-drive and a clean install of your OS. Once back into windows, perform Windows updates. After, only install your video card/sound card drivers and then download the newest Intensity drivers (3.6 I think) and install. Be sure to restart if a driver asks you to. Finally repeat the process from your video and see if it happens again at this point.

If you were responding to me, the name is Aaron not Brett. Anyway, I confirmed with GigaByte that my motherboard has two 16x PCIe 2.0 slots as seen below. I am not sure what you mean by PCIe 2.0 slots that run at “full speed”, but mine appear to do so. PCIE_16_2 shares with the three PCIe 1x slots on my board, but I have no cards installed into those. It would seem based on the above information that adding a internal PCIe 4x USB 3.0 card to my second PCIE_16_2 slot would allow me to use the shuttle or is it still not going to work? Just asking as I wanted to see if I could make it work on my current system rather then having to build a new one.
2 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots (The PCIE_16_1 slot supports x16; the PCIE_16_2 supports x16.)
3 x PCI Express x1 slots (share with the PCIE_16_2 slot) -
My GigaByte X48 Intel motherboard has two full speed PCIe 2.0 slots at 16x speeds. So that was why I was thinking I could just pop in a 4x or 8x USB 3.0 card in and use the Shuttle, but guess not from what you said.

Luke, so are you saying you can in fact use a PCIe 4x USB 3.0 card with the Intensity Shuttle rather then having to build a new computer based on an Intel X58 motherboard? Something like the below card:

Also, on that tech specs for the Intensity Shuttle it lists 480p support. Could you confirm if that is supported for both Component and HDMI input and does that 720x480p support consist of both 59.94fps and 60fps?
