How to play from Decklink capture card

[ancientmember]

i typed the following to see a feed from Decklink SDI card but nothing, but all i get is "The Luggage (Revision Exported)". can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong? i'm using latest ubuntu and driver installed correctly.

Code: Select all

vlc decklink:// --daemon --decklink-video-connection="sdi" --decklink-card-index=0 --decklink-mode="ntsc"

Impossible to say without further logs and details

[captainloc]

start by removing --daemon on the command line !

[ancientmember]

Code: Select all

VLC media player 1.1.12 The Luggage (revision exported) vlc: unknown option or missing mandatory argument `--decklink-video-connection=sdi' Try `vlc --help' for more information.

You didn't compile VLC with Decklink SDK.
re-compiile VLC with this option : --with-decklink-sdk=DIR, where DIR is the location of Blackmagic DeckLink SDI SDK.
You can find Blackmagic SDK on their website.

i tried to re-compile it,but couldn't make it work. what is the exact command format? i downloaded SDK and unzipped a Linux folder:

/home/Linux/include/

[ancientmember]

willing to pay $100 for this SDK compiling help

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

First, use VLC 1.2 and not 1.1.12!

I am also trying to get VLC working with my new Blackmagic Intensity Pro card - I'm using Ubuntu 11.04.

Can someone provide guidance on how I can build VLC with the Decklink SDK? I really want to get this card working with my Ubuntu build.

I have downloaded the VLC v1.2.0 source from git, and I have downloaded the Decklink SDK from the BMD website.

What do I need to do next?

Cheers.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Compile it. Use sudo apt-get build-dep vlc to help you.

[smithy856]

Thanks, I've just compiled and built 1.2 and managed to view the Intensity Pro's HDMI input (720) through vlc. It works great! Cheers to the vlc devs for making this happen.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Cool.

I've compiled vlc with decklink. But, I can't run vlc.
When I run:

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv decklink://

vlc said that:

Code: Select all

Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'decklink://'. Check the log for details.

Please help me solving this problem!!!
I run with camera have component input!!! And use ubuntu 10.04, vlc 2.0.2...
