Gurcharan, The only difference between the Intensity and Decklink cards format-wise is that the Decklink cards support 24PsF, which I don't think vic is using - all Blackmagic capture cards support 1080i50, 1080i60, 720p50 and 720p60. As Changhyeok said vic currently only supports 1920x1080 at 25fps, presumably meaning 1080i50, which is a PAL format.
--Andrew 2009/2/18 Gurcharan S. Khanna <gurcharan.kha...@rit.edu<mailto:gurcharan.kha...@rit.edu>> Mike, are you using the Intensity Pro or the Decklink ExtremeHD card? i am suspecting there are differences between the two. i've seen 30 fps v 60 fps as the specs for the Decklink v. the Intensity come up on its GUI and don't know why this is the case. thanks, -gurcharan mike.w.da...@cs.cardiff.ac.uk<mailto:mike.w.da...@cs.cardiff.ac.uk> wrote: Hi All Just to clarify. I'm using a SONY HDR-SR12E camera. I've tested it both in PAL and NTSC formats at 1080i and its all fine. In resting phase. (very little activity) I'm getting 1.8M/s transfer rate. Mike Quoting Nathan Gardiner <nathan.gardi...@canterbury.ac.nz<mailto:nathan.gardi...@canterbury.ac.nz>>: We have had problems trying to get an AVCHD camcorder to work with BlackMagic card and i think most AVCHD camcorders that I tested didn't seem to have true HDMI realtime output. I don't think that NTSC and PAL should make much difference as the BlackMagic card accepts input from either or. Also, we should have a new JVC camcorder arriving in the next day or so and will be testing that out.

Right now I'm using the on-board VGA for the display. I didn't think I needed a high-end display card just to run the service manager. Anyway I think you and I are seeing the same symptoms. I'm using 720 @ 30p.

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. --Andrew 2009/2/17 Jimmy Miklavcic <jimmy.miklav...@utah.edu<mailto:jimmy.miklav...@utah.edu>> Mike, it's great news that you have been able to get HIT Lab's vic to work. I haven't been so lucky. I have AVCHD (Panasonic AG-HMC150) video cameras. Mike I think that you have MPEG2 based HD cameras. Are yours Sony? Nathan, I don't think you tested with an AVCHD camera. All I get is black, which I think tells me that it sees the video card but not, the video stream. Mike, did you use 1080i/p or 720p? If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open.
