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.
Regards,
Nathan

I did check it a while back and it was fine. I had to install a graphics
card in order for Media Express to work. 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.

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.

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.
Jimmy

Hi Nathan
Thanks otherwise all looking good.
Not bad on bandwidth usage either.
