Hi folks,
I'm having a devil of a time getting the ATEM 1 M/E to connect via USB 3.0. My PC is the HP Z400 with a Lacie USB 3.0 PCI Express card with the NEC D720200 chip. The BMD website recommends driver 2.0.4 or above and firmware version 3.0.2.5 or above. I had version 2.0.34 and 4.0.1.5 (I think) but I can't find the drivers for 2.0.4 anywhere. The
http://www.station-drivers.com/page/nec.htm website that the USB3_Readme_Before_You_Install.pdf guide points to only has up to driver 2.0.39, which I've installed. I've also updated the firmware to 4.0.2.5, but I'm still getting an error when connecting the ATEM to the USB 3.0 port.
The error states:
"This device can perform faster
This Blackmagic ATEM 1 M/E Production Switcher can transfer information faster if you connect it to a Super-Speed USB 3.0 port."
I've tried the card in "Slot 1 PCIe2 x8(4)" and "Slot 3 PCIe x8(4)" with no change (I will return it to the PCIe2 slot as I understand PCI Express 2.0 is recommended). I do see both the ATEM and the 3.0 Hub/Controller in Device Manager but I can't see the ATEM in Media Express to record from it.
Anyone got any ideas? I've got a Decklink SDI card on the way as well, but it has been delayed so the USB was supposed to be my backup

Thanks,
Jeff
