Intensity Pro does not capture Progressive Video

I have connected a 3-Chip industrial Camera via YUV to the intensity Pro. I record via Media Express. It's working good, as long as I record in 576i. But if I choose 576p and run my camera in progressive mode, media express will not be able to display and record this signal. It stutters and has black images all the time.

How can I be able to record Progressive Signal 576p from my 3-Chip industrial Camera connected via YUV?

Where did you get the idea that this product would support progressive SD?
It certainly is not listed here:

It should be possible to upconvert this signal to progressive HD, which is among supported modes.
But what is the actual point of going for progressive?
If your video has a lot of movement and you need to make stills, that would be valid reason.
It is the same resolution after all, only behaves differently with moving objects.

Over HDMI if progressive SD is fed to the board it will accept the signal but capture it as interlaced. But it will not capture the native progressive signal.

I hope that helps clarify.

@Esa Kranz - in the Preference Menue of Media Express You can chosse PAL Progressive... it's simple as that how I came to the idea.

I try to use this board together with a Film Tranfer Unit, which delievers progressive Video from its Camerahead ---> Film ---> Progressive ... makes sense!
