Tech Note Decklink Drivers

February 2007

Salient Stills has discovered an issue related to capturing video using the most recent versions of the Decklink video drivers (versions 5.8 and later).

To ensure the Decklink card is properly configured for video capture, users should open the Format selection dialog in the Capture panel and select: 1. UYVY (720x486) Note: PAL users in Europe and the UK should select: 2. UYVY (720x576).

It is only necessary to configure the format once, as it will be remembered whenever capture is invoked in the future. For further information please contact us: Call 617.338.1441 x251 or email support@salientstills.com.
