Decklink HD Extreme breakout cable pinout needed

PostSat Sep 29, 2012 8:48 am

Hi! I have Decklink HD Extreme (first version from 2006). When I move to another house i somehow lost my breakout cable.

I need pinout to make new one (I need only analog audio IO).

Can someone from BMD team help me?

Thanks.

I need the PDF of the breakout cable as well. After a year of unemployment, I'm going freelance full time. Mostly digital photography, but have the opportunity to break into video editing for a local production company willing to train.

I did some trade work and acquired a older but still beefy Mac Pro dual quad core system with the original Decklink HD Extreme card mentioned in this thread. I downloaded the latest Design Desktop software 9.6.9, but need the manual and breakout cable. Are any of the current cables compatible with this older card?

Upgrading to current card definitely in my sights if I can generate enough work with my new system.

Appreciate any support you can offer.

Thanks!

Please PM me with your email address so I can send you the .pdf. The current cards' breakout cables are not compatible with this card.

Hello Sarah Jones,

I have a HD extreme from 2006 and I was wondering which cable would work. I do not have the breakout cables. Do you have the PDF for this card.

I tried to PM you, but the forum says I do not have the permission to see the user list and thereby I am not given the option to send you a message by clicking on your name.

Greetings,
Jeffrey

Hi

I also urgently need the pinout for this card.

Why doesn't Blackmagic publish the pinouts for all their cards on their website and in the documentation.

I find it almost unbelievable that this information isn't published when I can search other manufacturers websites for information about equipment that is 10 to 15 years old and can find manual, pinouts etc.

This should be a simple measure to implement since in a previous post Joshua states that you have PDFs available.

Is this info still available? I need to connect the RefIn but don't need the other points. (If possible, send to the email on my profile or I can PM it to someone.)

Thanks,

Hi,
I have a Decklink Studio 4K which is no longer displaying the composite input. Can I please get the pinout for the DB-44 connector so I can exclude this from the possible cause ?
Thanks.

Tony, Thanks. I've tried sending you a PM, but it's just sitting in my outbox. Am I doing something wrong, or will it only send when you go online?

Thanks for your help, both with the workings of the PM & the pinout information.
Cable looks ok, maybe its the PCI slot on the PC. Otherwise the card is dead.

Hi Tony,

Please could you also send the breakout pinout to me? This is the older HDExtreme (non 3D) BMDPCB29 REV B 2006, HD26 D connector.

I will also send a PM in case you don't see this.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but can anyone confirm if this card, BMDPCB29 Rev B, works with Windows 10?

Thank you.
