Our SDK uses a native Decklink SDK to work with its devices. Please make sure that you've installed required components of the SDK to work with devices and that drivers are updated to the newest version.
The main features that are implemented:
- Input SDI/HDMI/component/composite signals
- Output SDI/HDMI/component/composite signals
- Internal and external keying
- Fill-only and Key-only outputs
- Closed Captioning (CEA-608, EIA-708, Line21)
- Bypass relays (for Decklink Quad only)
- VANC data processing
- Timecode support
Note. BMD supports only YUV (8- and 10-bit) formats for NTSC and PAL modes.
The latest recommended Blackmagic Design (BMD) driver version is 14.5.
⚠ Important Compatibility Notice:
BMD drivers are not backward-compatible starting with Video SDK 2.9.2.14161 and BMD 14.5. We recommend installing BMD driver version 14.2 if you are using Video SDK 2.9.2.14160 or an earlier version for optimal compatibility.
