On the mac OS side, since you are using a hackintosh, your best bet is to find someone who runs it as well. I don’t think Blackmagic will support it.
On the PC side, have you look at the recommended hardware and software from BM site/drivers info? They have a PDF configuration manual where they list compatibilities.

Also do you have access to a mac? it might be worth it just to make sure the card is working to plug it in and run the test.

Best,

Thanks Juan.

That’s what I ended up doing, conforming the stills sequence to a Quicktime movie, which added an extra step.
It would be nice if Resolve could work with JPEG, PNG, TIFF stills directly into a sequence.

Are they any stupid questions? 🙂

No the card is the same but depending on your mac system (hardware & OS version) and how you use the card (headless or not), you might need to flash the card in order to work with your configuration.
More info from your system will help to define all of this…

I run a headless EVGA Geforce GTX 570 card on my MacPro 4,1 system without having to flash the card.

September 27, 2012 at 2:00 am in reply to: Premiere Pro CS6 External Monitor Issues with Decklink

You mean you can monitor from the SOURCE monitor and not from the PROGRAM monitor?

What is the format of your footage (frame size, codec, frame rate)?

Could it be that your sequence setting does not match your BM card playback standard?

Which external monitor are you using?

Rob,

You’ll have to be a little bit more specifics if you want some help:
. what is your timeline settings? frame size, frame rate and codec…
. which BM card do you have and how is it connected to your external monitor?

September 20, 2012 at 9:56 pm in reply to: Exporting FROM AE as AppleProRes422 into final cut pro?

you can mix and match.

If you go through AE anyway, I will create all my compositions in 16/32 bits per channel, even if you have some 8-bpc footage. The idea is you will be able to better represent more color per pixel, like any color gradients will look smoother. Also if you intent to go through color correction, you will get more flexibility in grading your film.

Are you working in 16/32-bit AE project?

Again run your own test but in your case I would export using Apple ProRes HQ to make sure I retain most of the information you capture with your still camera.

Before we can answer your questions we need to know what kind of footage you are working with? size and format? the choice of the codec will depend on how much information you already have in the first place. For example, in my experience, if you are working with HDV or DVCPROHD footage, you will not gain anything by transcoding to Apple ProRes HQ over regular Apple ProRes.

Now if you are working in After Effects and that the video is just a component of your composition and that you are working in 16 or 32-bit, and adding some graphics elements, then it might make a difference to choose ProRes HQ.

Again it really depends on your workflow and the original footage format. In the doubt it is always a good thing to run your own test and see the result through your own workflow.

I hope this helps,

EVGA nVIDIA Geforce GTX570 – slot 2

Do you have your media on a different drive than your OS and PP project? where is your media cache folder located (Preview and others)?
How much RAM memory do you allocate to PP?
What is your frame rate associated with that particular sequence?
Do you have any other program open at the same time?
