Isadora and Black Magic Design Intensity Shuttle
-
Won't the ultra studio express also do this? It's half the cost of the 4k and has both an HDMI input and output.

Hi guys,
I've been running some tests with blackmagic Intensity Shuttle USB3.0
And... NO it is not possible to capture video and output a stage at the same time with the intensity hardware with VDMX.
But YES, you can output anything you want from VDMX to the intensity hardware output.
When you capture a video stream, the output of the intensity shuttle is a copy of the input...Best

Thanks for checking @fifou
-
@Rick, no they all have output and input but full duplex requires different hardware as it says very clearly in the press release it is only for the 4k models.
-
Many thanks for your comments and recommendations. The BMD Ultra Studio 4K looks great but out of my price range although with a great feature set.
I think it will be cheaper to buy either the Belkin or Caldigit thunderbolt expansion + BMD Intensity Shuttle USB3\. alternatively purchase the Isadora USB dongle + BMD Intensity Shuttle USB3 and hire a Mac with USB3 ports for the project.Great forum by the way!Thanks again Paz -
Anyone did a test with captured video via blackmagic Intensity Shuttle USB3.0 into izzy and output the video to the matrox triple head via thunderbold? I got an email from blackmagic that it should work, just wanted to know if anyone had done some tests. I´m on a macbook pro mid 2012.

Ah, ok. So I´ll give it a try.

Hi,
Intensity shuttle pro USB3.0 works on osx 10.8.5 with izzy.
Matrox tripplehead 2Go DP works on my mac but didn't tried it yet with izzy.
I will test the two cards together soon..Best
Philippe -
The Matrox will work. I can't see why using both products at the same time would hinder the process. As long as your machine is fast enough, you have a SSD for media and the patch isn't super crazy with tons of blur and effects - I am quite confident it will be ok.

BM Intensity Shuttle Pro USB3.0 works on my setup with izzy and 10.9.
-
Just received the CalDigit thunderbolt station today. On OS X 10.9 it works out of the box. On 10.8 you have to install an ethernet driver for the network to work.
DON'T INSTALL the driver on 10.9 otherwise your internet will not work at all, not even wifi. I have made the mistake. Had to reinstall maverick.

Thats great to know @Michel.
Whats the build quality like and first impressions, etc? -
The build quality is great, and the device is much smaller than I thought it would be.

I've done some more testing with my Intensity Shuttle USB3 on Mavericks and I've got a problem : Intensity sound input has disappeared from Isadora and OSX audio preferences.
Has anybody else the same problem ?Best regards,Jeremie -
A little post for an information and a question about Intensity Shuttle USB3.
The information : Blackmagic has finally released a stable driver for Intensity Shuttle USB3 on Mac OS X.The question : is there a way to capture stream from Intensity Shuttle for USB3 on Mac using AVFoundation framework ?Currently, I'm unable to see all input settings (like 1080p25 for example) and someone on BlackMagic Design Forum told me that it is because Isadora doesn't use AVFoundation for capture.See related post here : [http://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=27349](http://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=27349)Has someone an idea or solution to make this work ? (I've an Isadora 2.0 license and use Isadora 2.0.0b4)Best regards,Jeremie -
Isadora version 2.0 does use AVFoundation. I have the thunderbolt version so can't comment on that but I am pretty sure @Feinsinn has had it working (and he also has version 2)
-
Yes it works for me, but not with the newest Update. I had to install BMDDesktop Video 9.7.9 again, there it works. Macbook Pro with Intensity Shuttle USB 3
All the best,Alex -
Yes Isadora does use AVFoundation but I think only for playback not for capturing.
