[AG-TECH] BlackMagic HDMI vic beta download

[Andrew Ford]

Hi Jimmy,

Did you try checking the HDMI input directly, via either Blackmagic Media
Express or AMCap? If that works then we probably have the same problem - I
can see the video fine in Media Express but vic just shows a black screen
with any codec or size. Here we have the Blackmagic Intensity Pro cards with
Sony HDR-SR11 cameras, which are AVCHD. Side note: I don't think the
recording format makes much of a difference, just the specific video format,
as in 1080i at a certain framerate.

Nathan, is vic expecting a certain framerate? The format that worked with
Media Express was 1080i @ 59.97. If it's only been tested with PAL so far, I
would hazard a guess and say that the NTSC isn't using the right
format/framerate in some way.
