<![CDATA[Blackmagic Driver problem]]>Hi.

I'm going to bring a mirrorless camera to Isadora using a blackmagic mini recorder.

My MacBook version is High Sierra 10.13.6 and Isadora version 2.2.2.

I installed the Blackmagic Desktop Video Setup normally and succeeded in bringing a mirrorless camera to my computer.

The camera also worked on OBS.

However, if you select Blackmagic in Isadora's Live Capture setting, the following error message appears.


I've tried reinstalling the Blackmagic Driver and Isadora several times, but this process has been repeated.

Is there a process that I missed in setting up to use the blackmagic mini recorder in Isadora?

I used the Intensity Shuttle because I was afraid that the blackmagic mini recorder had a problem, but the result was the same.

Help me if you know how to solve it.

Thanks.

only one application can use the driver at a time. So if you say "I ran Isadora and Blackmagic on my computer" what do you mean by that?

I ran Isadora and Blackmagic on my computer.

I should format my computer and try again on the weekend.

Thanks !

do you have at the same time another application using Blackmagic?  Then close it. The Blackmagic driver support only one application and sometime say no driver instead of driver already in use.

The 'Driver' must be first switched to Blackmagic, and then the 'Device' can be selected in the Video Input area. Not switching to the Blackmagic driver will cause the listed Blackmagic device to fail.
So just be sure you are not trying to run the device thru the Apple driver.

Please upgrade to 2.6.1 to get the latest supported version of Izzy in the 2.x.x branch. It doesnt cost you anything if you have an Izzy 2.x license

Any reason you did not install Isadora 2.6.1? For testing you can install multiple versions of Isadora.
