Are you trying to play on the same monitor that your PC is connected to? My understanding is that the Blackmagic won’t pass through video from its HDMI port unless media express is running.

Try connecting just the XBOX to the capture card. Can you see a picure with only the xbox connected and media express open?? The IN port of the card is the one that’s closest to the mainboard of your PC.

If you can and you are using the same monitor, I’ve found a powered HDMI splitter works really well.

Ensure that in the control panel settings you have HDMI in selected as the source.

I can see why you would buy a splitter to divert the output. However, I’ve got a fairly decent PC.

4GB RAM, Windows 7, 2 x Striped HDD, Phenom 9750 Quad Core.

The image captures prefectly without any lag etc, at 720 or 1080i.

However, I thought that this card facilitated the ability to capture from an HD source and at the same time monitor the source on the HDMI out!?

If this isn’t the case, I’ll have to return it as unfit for purpose as buying additional kit to do the cards job for it is just crazy!

Maybe I’ve set something up wrong.
