Blackmagic Ultra Studio Mini Recorder

I updated to 26.1 and I lost the ability to capture from the Mini Recorder.
I added a Video Capture Device and select the Mini Recorder and all I get is a green screen.
Adding a Blackmagic Device is not an option any more.

Is this a bug or something that is not going to be supported going forward?

I guess there is an update for the Blackmagic Desktop Video Setup software. I updated this morning and things seem to be working

Can confirm. Updated Blackmagic and everything is working again.

Thanks all!

I have not Upgraded to Big Sur. I was waiting to do that because of compatibility issues with this and other software. Will be upgrading over the holidays.

Installing Desktop Video 12.0 Beta 1, as linked by Craig above, and rebooting seems to have worked for me. I'm also on Catalina 10.15.7, on a recent Mac Mini, with an UltraStudio Mini Recorder connected through an Apple Thunderbolt 2 to 3 adapter.

I'm not sure if anyone else has experienced this, but this setup has always been flaky for me anyway. I would often have to disconnect/reconnect the USMR from the Mac and/or the HDMI source to get something other than a black screen when returning to OBS after not using it for a day. So when I first installed the latest OBS, it wasn't obvious that something was wrong, until I actually tried to use the USMR and no amount of reconnecting it would give me an image. Anyway, we'll see how this goes long-term.
