Hello! Please tell me if I can use Blackmagic DeckLink Duo receive timecode and metadata from the Red Epic cameras or Arri Alexa? It is very important for me.

Hello -
Camera metadata from the models that you mention are often placed in horizontal ancillary data or HANC. Our APIs do not allow you access to HANC and so there fore, it is usually not possible to access the camera metadata using our SDK and Decklink DUO. The time code are supported if they use standard RP188 time code capture and playback on Decklink DUO (limited to HD) from driver 10.3.5 and later.
