Hello everybody,

 

does anybody have any experience with this quite new capture/ playback card?

 

I am thinking about a setup with this capture card and a FirePro W 8000, but I guess the the computer will never get enough RAM.

 

Does anybody have an opinion about this?

Hello everybody,

That statement kind of confuses me. The BlackMagicDesign DeckLink Quad has been around for a few years now.

I do not understand that statement. It is best to use Windows 7 64 bit when using BMD capture cards.

Never had any memory issues with the Quad. We have been building them in our computer offerings for over two years now.

It works as well as any other BlackMagicDesign capture card.

 

The HD-SDI connectors on the quad are not the mainstream BNC connectors.

The DeckLink Quad uses DIN 1.0/2.3 connections rather than larger BNC type connectors.

i.e. Molex, Winchester, Canon, Switchcraft, Canare, etc.
