SD on DeckLink Quad 2

PostTue May 01, 2018 4:23 pm

Hi all.

I'm trying to get an sd signal into the DL.
I also need an sd out.

I'm using media express to monitor as to when I get the signal.

I've tried everything I know to do.

When I installed the card it automatically updated.

Also, I'm using vMix.

Thanks for any help!

Have you configured the card using Desktop Video application that came with the install? ;)

On the quad you need to config the in and outputs as all ports can be in or out.. ;)

Hello Caine. One way of troubleshooting is to play a file on one output and connect directly to another input leaving any external equipment out of the loop. Try SD and HD. Also I have to ask. Your SD signal is SDI Digital and not Composite Analog video right?

No, the sd signal is analog.
I guess that's why it doesn't work.
The inputs must be digital only.

Yes SD-SDI is a digital signal. Not analog composite video.. ;)
