Hey there, I have a Decklink 4k Extreme Card and I've just begun to capture games.
I've noticed that when capturing from the PS4 (using HDMI), the LFE and Center Channel seem to be switched. Now I know I can switch the channels after capturing, but the thing is the output coming from the card is also doing the same thing, meaning when I'm playing, I can't hear the stuff that should be on the center channel at all, which means all dialogue, many sound effects etc, which is a problem. If this was one of the surround channels I probably wouldn't have any issue with it, and fix it in post.
When my PS4 is connected to an AV receiver or TV, audio is perfectly fine, I can hear all the contents of the center channel, Decklink seems to be interpreting the 5.1 audio wrong. I tried capturing in stereo as well, but that doesn't fix the problem, and I've tried both the 7.1 and 5.1 options in the ps4.
This is through both Blackmagic Media Express and Adobe Premiere Pro CS 6.
I figured that maybe this was discovered already and updated, so I tried to update my desktop video version, but the thing is doing that seems to cause problems, and just shows a black screen for the ps4, but outputs the video to the tv okay.
So currently I'm using the latest version that allows me to capture video properly, which is Desktop Video 9.9.6.
So any way to adjust or fix this somehow.
Edit: Also for the heck of it, installed the new desktop video software, captured a clip (meaning a black screen) with the audio, the audio still has the same issue, LFE and Center channels are switched, and the output through Media Express also seems to have the issue since again I can't hear any dialogue (which I know is there when I can obtain it in Premiere by switching the LFE and Center channels).
