I am having an issue capturing the signal from a retina MBP on my pc computers
the signal comes up for about a second and then goes black...
this only happens going from my mac into a pc... pc to pc works fine as does pc to mac...
am thinking hdcp may be the culprit here...
about to do some tests with a detective as well as some other cables but figured I would post up here to see if anyone is having a similar problem
edit: throwing a edid detective inline does the trick... still a little bummed that it needs to be there... not sure as to exactly why mac likes to mess with displays so much... any insight to that would be awesome
What is your composition size, what your output resolution....and what resolution is shown in the magewell input in resolume?edit 2: latency is pretty bad... unusable for situations where you are going to be capturing incoming vj's and mapping their signal to a LED array... unless there are some settings I do not know about this is not anywhere near the quality of say a datapath card

What would you guess?...how many frames delay do you have?

Just an idea....maybe that helpsRecommendation: In actual use, first plug HDMI cable, then plug the USB3.0
interface. Because an HDMI signal sources are often not reliable grounding, Ground
and the computer will be relatively large voltage difference, it may cause the signal
source or capture not working properly.
