Decklink capture with ffmpeg on Mac OS

Hi there,

I have successfully compiled FFmpeg with the decklink SDK. FFmpeg list successfully all the inputs but when I try to capture using the command below, it returns an error : Decklink Quad (1): Device not configured. Still I have configured the card with the Desktop Video Setup (all connectors are inputs) and the 1st has a input signal.

Do I miss someting? Should "configure" the card in a way upfront?

The command: ffmpeg -format_code Hp25 -f decklink -i 'Decklink Quad (1)' -c:v libx264 -preset fast -video_size 1920x1080 -framerate 25 -an truc.mp4

Have you tried just
ffmpeg -f decklink -i 'Decklink Quad (1)' truc.mp4

It should use the decklink auto detection of the source and create mp4 of matching resolution and frame rate.

On my Windows system with 720 input signal it shows
Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (libx264) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv422p(progressive), 1280x720, q=-1--1, 50 fps, 12800 tbn, 50 tbc

Hey Morrish,

Thanks for your reply. I just tried but it gives the same error.
