I’ve got my Decklink 4K Extreme 12G capture working with an RGB output signal from my 4K PC monitor. Under preferences the input signal is selected as 4K Ultra HD 30. Image still shows vertical lines and the color is not right. See image of the Media Express window. Any idea how to correct?

Not yet. Still working with the store where I purchased the Decklink 4K. He is very helpful and knowledgeable and contacts BlackMagic support.
I will likely try a DVI to SDI signal converter.
His latest reply to me: “Most products in the market are only handling DVI to HDSDI at the moment. I assume if you take the DVI output of max 2560×1600 @ 60 Hz, down convert it to 1080p with the DVI Extender, and connect that to your card, the card will upscale. I am confirming this with Blackmagic support.”

Will report back with any progress.

My GTX980 graphics card should have an option to select YCrCb in the digital color format box when connected via the HDMI port. For some reason, it does not. I’m posting on the GeForce NVidia forum trying to find an answer.

Thanks!
The output to a TV works fine. The HDMI connector on the graphics card outputs both video and audio from the PC to a high-definition television. So I am thinking, a setting somewhere is not right.

Getting closer! I have the capture window working and seeing exactly what is on the screen of the main computer.
Unfortunately, the video being captured is bright pink and blue. Will try and find correct color settings.

Just ran the Disc Speed Test and I only get green checkmarks for PAL and NTSC on the “will it work” section!
I am using a fairly new computer. Do I need to buy a faster drive?

Thanks. Yes, I think I was dealing with a touch of atmospheric haze as well. Managed to salvage a couple of shots.

Next lunar eclipse is June 15, 2011. I’ll be ready if the sky is clear!

I purchased Pixelan AnyFX, and for what this software can do for $29, the others seem a way over priced! It installed within seconds and I was making changes to my video right away without any instructions or tutorials.

Thanks guys. Yes and a lot cheaper. Perhaps not quite the flexibility for fine tuning a setting, but the basics are certainly there to do the main job. Many of the subtle changes made with the expensive programs are all for not, once the video is rendered and viewed on monitors with widely varied settings. I’m leaning to the AnyFx by Pixelan.
