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. --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.
