Scope
Video Playback Support with up to two independent outputs. (Four may be available optionally at a later date.)
These outputs can be displayed on any screen connected to the PC’s graphics device. Certain Blackmagic inter-
faces are also supported. AJA interfaces are not supported.
It’s now possible to playback video directly within Pyramix. This video can be imported via the Interchange Import
(Video Clips, AAF, XML) or via the Media Manager.
Audio files can be “wrapped” in a Video file using an option in the Mixdown dialog.
VCube
For more complex video requirements VCube offers a great deal more: Recording/Capture, Rendering, Wrapping,
4k support, ADR support with wipes and clocks, SDI Audio support, Crosslock (TimeCode different to frame rate)
and higher performance on a dedicated system/engine.
Hardware
Black Magic support
Pyramix supports Blackmagic design Video Cards via the DeckLink SDK. This covers DeckLink, UltraStudio and
Intensity product lines. Only Decklink Studio 4K has been validated as of now. The DeckLink Studio Monitor is
known to be working but has no Video reference to ensure genlock.
Video Card Outputs:
The Video card can be enabled under All Settings > Video > Settings : Video Cards:
In order for this feature to work the correct Merging Key Pack and a Blackmagic Design Video Card are required.
The Video Output(s) are mirrored to this hardware when a supported Blackmagic DeckLink device is installed on
the computer.
