Desktop Video software

ensure you have the very latest driver. Visit www.blackmagic-design.com/support
2. Open the “Desktop Video Installer” folder and launch the “Desktop Video Installer” application.
3. Click
Continue, Agree and Install buttons and the drivers will be installed on your system.
4. Now restart your machine to enable the new software drivers.
Automatic firmware updating
After your Mac has restarted, the software will check the DeckLink hardware to see what firmware the card
contains. If the firmware version does not match the software version, Desktop Video will offer to update
the firmware. This is automatic and all you need to do is click OK to start the update. After the firmware has
updated, restart your Mac to complete the process.
Programmable firmware can provide new features, compatibility with new hardware and support for
new formats.
