Hello everyone,
I am trying to get a Windows 7 HP PC into a ATEM M/E 2 Switcher. I am coming out of the DVI card into the switcher via a Blackmagic DVI Extender. I could get the PC working on the switcher, when the video standard was set to 1080i/50. However, my camera wouldn't work at this setting nor my Vizio 80" monitor.
So now the switcher is set to 1080i/59.94 and the camera and Vizio work great, but there is no video setting on the PCI card that will work. The closest I got was to set the refresh rate on the PC to 59Hz. I could see the computer screen on the screens but the image would flash on and off, which I guess would mean that it is not synching up properly.
Would the best solution be to get a new video card for the PC? If so, which card should I get? The desktop monitor they have only has DVI input but I could get them a computer monitor that has an HDMI input if needed. I was looking at the Blackmagic cards, specifically the DeckLink Mini Monitor card.
Thanks for reading this post and for your time.
