Hi Shane,
Thanks for letting us know and I will mention this to Matt when he returns in a couple of days.

Hi,
I’m not sure to what limitation you are referring but I can say that we use our own codec for 10-bit 4:4:4 rendering as Apple do not currently have a colorspace for 10-bit 4:4:4 in their uncompressed codecs. Does that answer your question?

Hi Nick,
I haven’t heard of this but will try to fit in some testing in the next 2 to 3 days. We’re flat out with the migration to PCIe but we should be able to squeeze in a test for you.

Hi Francois,
I believe I answered you (or someone with a similar question) via email yesterday. Yes you can choose to monitor SD video in component or composite analog video when down converting from HD material in the HDV format to SD with DeckLink Macintosh 5.x drivers.
[Francois X] “is anybody capturing HDV directly in DVC HD Pro and treating it in this format ?”
You cannot capture HDV material via Firewire and have it automatically transcode in to the DVCPRO HD format. In fact, this would just lead to degradation of image quality. If you HDV device has HD-SDI output, you can capture this via any DeckLink HD series card and save in the DVCPRO HD format in real time. If your HDV device only has component analog output, you can use a Multibridge to convert this to HD-SDI which can then be captured via any DeckLink HD series card and save in the DVCPRO HD format in real time.

Hi Paul,
Please review the support note Video increasingly lags behind audio in Premiere Pro and let me know if this helps or explains your problem.

Hi Shane,
Does reverting to DeckLink Windows 5.1.1 overcome your problem?

Hi Michael,
Yes, the Viper lookup table is included in the current software/firmware for HDLink. We’ve added new features since then so the Viper lookup table is no longer highlighted on our web pages.

Hi Rory,
HDMI has not been an advertised feature of the Multibridge Extreme and Studio but at IBC 2005, they were been shown in use with HDMI displays so it is my expectation (rather than a promise) HDMI support will be available when as soon as they commence shipping. It’s a public holiday here so I can’t verify that for a couple of days.

Hi Keith,
We have replicated this on the RCA analog monitoring outputs but the XLR analog outputs did not exhibit the problem? I will ask the engineers to fix this in a firmware update as it would be annoying. Does this match what you have observed? Thank you for bringing the problem to our attention.
