R6b3 capturing black with blackmagic

Post by Drnlvrz »

Hi guys, i have a pc media server with 3 blackmagic capture cards (2x decklink mini recorder + 1x decklink studio). It works fine on Resolume 5, but in r6b3 I only get black signal... I’ve reinstalled Blackmagic drivers, reinstalled resolume but still capturing “black”. Can anybody help me please?

Any other software works fine with 3 capture cards: vMix, Resolume 5, blackmagic owners software...

All 3 capture cards capturing black. I tested unplugging hdmi cable on 3 capture cards and plugging in again and 3 capture cards match resolution and freq ok (new on r6). It seems to is detecting signal, but still black.

Still black capturing.... same thing on PC or Mac.... tried blackmagic Intensity pro 4k... and blackmagic Ultrastudio 4k.... used differents BMD drivers versions and still nothing......resolume 6 updated to the 6.0.1

Working perfect on R5.

on R6 capture clip properties... stuck on the same VIDEO FORMAT... not able to change it.

The cards try to auto detect the format.
Is is stuck on the wrong video format, is it why they are black?

Stuck in the correct video format, and also it updates when change directly on the bmd desktop setup... But no image, just black. Works fine on 5.1.4...... tried to remove and install drivers again, different versions...

An workaround, only on Mac (that aloud to open both versions at the same time), was to syphon the captured video from R5 on R6.... The project that I am running has a huge performance increase on 6..... But on Pc, I cannot open both Resolume versions, there are any way to do this?
