Question / Help Black screen with Black Magic Intensity Pro 4k

Hey,

I'm trying to stream using the Intensity Pro 4k but all I am getting is a black screen in preview. I know there were issues with the card initially but the majority of bugs seem to have now been fixed.

The card is capturing fine in Media Express so I'm unsure what the issue is. The closest I got to any sort of "picture" was just a bright red screen. Think it was because it was being used by another device.

Any help would really be appreciated.

Hi,

I do also have the Blackmagic Intensity Pro 4K and can capture my second computer.

The device I have been selected is "Blackmagic WDM Capture".
In the section "video" you need to check "custom resolution" and insert the appropriate resolution and fps from your input device (in my case 1920x1080 and 60fps).
The last step will be checking "use output format" and switch to "RGBA32".

That's it, but I have other issues with the Intensity Pro 4K. The Input is freezing after 5-15 minutes.
Can you advise, if you have the same problems?

Greetings,
Tim

Far as I know, the BMIP 4K has problems with OBS Classic, but has support built in with OBS-MP. Try grabbing the multiplatform edition and give it a whirl.

Thank you so much!

Windows OBS-MP works perfectly for me.
I had more issues with the linux version, so I did not try the windwos version.

I'm only holding off OBS MP due to the image slide shows not being available, after that I will look at making the switch.
