UltraStudio Mini Recorder on High Sierra

PostFri Dec 15, 2017 1:06 am

I just purchased my first Black Magic device, the UltraStudio Mini Recorder. Not working.

Hooked up to a Sony EX1, tried via SDI and HDMI. Not recognized in Desktop Video Setup 10.9.7, which is the latest one from the site: https://cl.ly/0F0T282B2n2T

It is recognized in the Apple Profiler: https://cl.ly/0Z3A3K1q2o1D

I'm using a 2015 13" Macbook Retina, High Sierra 10.13.1.

I really thought this would be an easy device to plug and play, so I have to order something else tomorrow if the Black Magic isn't going to work. I appreciate any help out there!

Hello,

I have the same problem since i updated my Macbook to High Sierra yesterday.
Is it a driver issue or what can i do to fix the problem? I use the mini Recorder for several years without a problem.

Hope someone can help me because i use the mini recorder almost daily.

Kind Regards, Ad Mulders

Anyone with an idea?

I updated High Sierra to the latest. I've tried all the output settings on the EX:

HD SDI/Component
SD SDI/Component
HD HDMI
SD HDMI Progressive
SD HDMI Interlace
Composite

and hooked up through SDI and HDMI.

I even tried with iLink enabled and disabled.

Wow, ok.I thought this was the official support channel for Blackmagic devices? Am I wrong? Is there another way to contact technical support?

For now, it looks like you can't use BlackMagic Ultrastudio devices with the latest macs. Good to know.

No this is not the official support channel for Blackmagic, most of the help you will get here are from other users of the equipment. You can e-mail and call Blackmagic support directly to get help.
Scroll down to "need assistance" and there you can find the right phone number for your region, or send an e-mail.
