VirtualForge does not support NTSC (480i) on Blackmagic video output devices.

Use the Blackmagic control app to select Blackmagic output signal options, including output resolution and frame rate.The video output characteristics of each Blackmagic video output device controlled by VirtualForge are determined by the individual Blackmagic device and by the Blackmagic control app.Note: VirtualForge support for Blackmagic SDI outputs, for sourcing calibration signals, is limited to the Blackmagic default YCbCr 4:2:2 10-bit pixel format, which the Blackmagic control app does not provide the option of changing.

If this default setting on the Blackmagic device is not changed before opening VirtualForge, the software will not run. Important: VirtualForge does not support NTSC (480i) on Blackmagic video output devices.

If the AJA device supports a LUT (e.g.

If you are switching between multiple AJA devices, be sure to check the format selection after you switch to a new device (all devices don’t support the same formats).

Note: Before launching the VirtualForge software, be sure to install the proper software/driver for the AJA or BMD video output device.

When complete, shut the computer down and then do a cold restart to allow the new firmware to be registered on the card. Do not disturb the computer during this time. But after restarting, the system will prompt for a firmware update to the card itself. First install the software and restart the computer to recognize the new drivers. Installation of the new Desktop Video 11.1 software is a two-stage process for Decklink users. HDR editors have been reporting success monitoring, for example, to higher-end OLED HDR receivers (such as the LG) rather than to dedicated five-figure SDI monitors. Now, that Rec2020 color profile signal can be output as HDR HLG through HDMI, opening up the possibility of HDR-capable HDMI monitors without needing yet another intermediary device. But the only options available for HDR monitoring for DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G users was either an HDR capable SDI monitor (I had actually used an Atomos Shogun Inferno to view HDR-hardly an optimal solution) or through the purchase of a Teranex Mini (about $500) to pass the SDI/HDR signal through to HDMI. Blackmagic’s Ultra Studio 4K $3000 stand-alone device had both SDI and HDMI HDR capabilities. Until this update, HDR could only be output via SDI from the Decklink card.
