Any news on when we can expect a new version of Mediaexpress with a GUI that’s not locked to 1920×1200?

Cheers,
Andreas

Dear Matt and the rest at Blackmagic!

Thanks for your updates. Great to see Mediaexpress is finally (soon)becoming useful for us.

I must say I think your priority number 1 must be the locked GUI problem with 1920×1200 only mode. Here at our facility we’ve been waiting for Mediaexpress2 since you first news about it at the NAB 2009. We have several production machines with new Decklink Studio cards just waiting to get Mediaexpress in a monitor friendly version. Most monitors we use for capture/ingest have a lower resolution than what Mediaexpress currently supports so for us a fix for this problem is crucial. (and I know most of your customers agree)

Another thing that would be fantastic is:

– Be able to capture to MOV/Quicktime containers on Windows

– Be able to capture to DV25 (.avi and .mov) that are easy to import into DV projects in Final Cut/Premiere for smaller productions or consumers.

Anyways – thanks for your updates and I hope to see a resolution change for Mediaexpress2 very very VERY soon!

Best regards,
Andreas Wideroe

We really would like to see Linux drivers for the Decklink cards. We want to use Linux as capture stations and do all the later work on Windows/Macs.

We also need the BM VTR capture tool and the Framelink for creating DPX files.

Please BM! We would love to see your cards have support for Linux.
