Hi Jimmy,

We had a trawl through the support emails and could not find your message. Maybe the user name used here is no the one used in your email “From” field?

Could you resend to support[at]blackmagic-design.com with a link to this thread so we can track it as well?

Thanks.

Hi Michael,

[Michael Mohr] “Does the Intensity Pro or Decklink HD Extreme only output the video from PPro CS3 when using a BMD project settings?”

Yes, you’ll need to use our project setup.

[Michael Mohr] “I want to capture using firewire. Can I still do this when a BMD project setting is chosen?”

You’ll need to use the DV setups provided by Premiere Pro, then switch to using our project setting to monitor the clips.

[Michael Mohr] “I really only plan to use the card to get a clear NTSC signal to my monitor. Besides being able to see the timeline on a monitor, would either of these cards add anything extra — ie added realtime?”

Nope, we don’t accelerate anything. Everything is processor based.

[Michael Mohr] “And finally – a vendor who carries BMD said flat out that the Intensity pro card is nothing but junk. Can anybody out there provide a second – third or fourth opinion?”

Interesting. Could you contact us about this or ask the vendor to contact us to know what he’s unhappy about?

Hi Oscar,

It’s not compatible at this point. Sorry. However, we’ll look into it and see if it’s something we can integrate.

Hi,

Use the easy setup that matches the format of your HDV clip.

For example, if it’s 1080i59.94, use “Blackmagic HDTV 1080i 59.94 – HDV”. This will configure the project properly. Create a new sequence after this as easy setups don’t affect existing sequences. HDV outputs at full resolution 1920×1080.

Not sure if your card is SD or HD but if it’s an SD version, it will automatically output as down converted SD video. To switch between anamorphic and letterbox down conversion, you can go into the DeckLink Preferences located in OS X’s System Preferences.
