The extender is in video mode. I’ve tried changing the Video Format and Resolution settings on the Polycom box, as well. I figured it was a YUV/RGB colorspace issue.

I’m sure there are differences. I meant differences with ProRes support.

Thanks. So there’s no difference between CS6 and CC for Windows, then. Adobe’s marketing on this is clear as mud. Is native DNxHD support new in Creative Cloud? We use Atomos Ronon recorders that can be upgraded to record in DNxHD. Perhaps we should consider that. We’re editing ProRes in CS6 now, but I was hoping for improvements in CC.

We originally just bought Airbox, which comes with a copy of ListBox that runs on that machine. We later bought a separate copy of ListBox and DataBox. DataBox is a pretty basic database but it lets you drag and drop directly into a ListBox playlist, which is nice.

We use PlayBox software installed on a PC built to their specs with a Decklink card. You may want to download a demo of their software to see if it will run on your system. They also offer turnkey solutions but that’s more costly and I prefer to build my own because then when (not if) a component fails I can just swap it out rather than sending the whole box off somewhere for service.

I removed the RocketRAID driver and it didn’t make a difference. The Kona initially shows up as a x8 card if it’s in a x1 slot, but it always ends up appearing as a x1 card when the profile is changed so it’s in a x4 slot.
I’ve done most of the troubleshooting with the RocketRaid card removed, but for the record, it also either shows up as a x4 card when it’s in a x8 slot, or a x1 card when it’s in a x4 slot. (It’s a x8 card.)
It doesn’t look like it’s the Kona. Perhaps I’ll reinstall the OS and start from scratch.

I didn’t uninstall the Rocket RAID drivers. I suppose that’s the next step.
I’ve tried it with the Kona drivers installed and uninstalled. What I was trying to do in this particular sequence was replicate a new installation as the Kona manual says to install the hardware first and then install the drivers.

I’ve been busy with productions and other more pressing engineering matters so I haven’t worked on this in a while. I’ve tried just about every imaginable configuration and it either sees the card as x1 or x8. Here’s my last attempt:
First I shut down and removed both the Kona and the RAID controller. I then started the machine, uninstalled Kona drivers, and reset the PRAM. I checked the Expansion Slot Utility and it correctly showed only the Radeon X1900XT in slot 1. It showed the second profile selected. I shut down the nachine and installed the Kona in slot 3. I started the machine. Expansion Slot Utility did not launch. I launched it and it showed the Kona as a x1 card running at maximum speed in slot 3. The second profile was still selected. I shut down the machine and removed the Kona card. I started the machine, selected the 1st profile in the Expansion Slot Utility, and restarted. I shut down the machine and installed the Kona in slot 3. I started the machine and Expansion Slot Utility launched. It showed the kona as a x8 card running at x1 in slot 3 (first profile). I selected the second profile and restarted. I launched the Expansion Slot Utility and it, once again, showed up as a x1 card running at maximum speed.

Yes. I later restarted again and reset PRAM.

Something like this should work if you’ve only got composite out and you only need DV25.
