Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is there any 4K-capable recording software that supports the Intensity Pro 4K directly?

A: It comes with software that should capture 4K. I haven't tested this because I don't have a 4k source.

Q: 2. Any chance this device can be hooked up to a pc laptop with thunderbolt 3? An adapter possibly? Thx in advance.

Q: 3. Does it come with Davinci Resolve studio?

A: The Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro 4K does not come with the full studio version of Da Vinci Resolve.

Q: 4. Apparently most of the reviews here on B&H for the intensity pro 4k have been negative. Why have they been removed? Seems like more transparency would help customer choice.

A: you were right , when i purchased this card , it was desapointment , it has a very loud sound . but blackmagic already fix that problem with the new firware . now works perfect to me

Q: 5. I know a lot of people will probably think this is going backwards, but if, for just plain nostalgic reasons, you wanted to not only capture from analog SD sources like VHS and output back to VHS, could you do that with this card?

A: The Intensity Pro 4K from Blackmagic Design comes with a breakout cable allowing for analog connections such as RCA and S-video, which most VHS players output as well. The Intensity Pro has an HDMI port for outputting to other sources, so an HDMI to S-video converter would be needed if the VHS player does not have HDMI as an input.

Q: 6. works with premier cs6 or cc?

A: I have an Intensity Pro capture card, but it does Not show up in Premiere 5. I have to capture the video from Desktop Video, then the file size is huge! Then I import the file into Premiere and then Export it to the Microsoft AVI Format - which cuts down the file size of a 2-hour video from 312 GB to 26 GB. This works, but it is a pain to have to use 2 different programs, where I cannot Capture it directly into Adobe Premiere 5 (it only has DV Or HDV, it does Not have BlackMagic in the Capture Format list).

Q: 7. Will this card fit on a small factor pc ?

A: don't know, i have in a MacPro 2012

Q: 8. Anyone using this card with premiere pro 2020? Any glitches with the latest BMD update? Thx 4 ur time

A: From the manufacturer. "Anytime a new version of an NLE is introduced there can be glitches, but as far as I know there are no issues to report. The Intensity Pro 4K should work well with any NLE or playback software."

Q: 10. Blackmagic Design Intensity pro 4k . I have a question about that card. I have a DVD player and recorder Panasonic DMR-EX 77 which has an HDMI output and when I connect it to the card with an HDMI cable it does not give a picture. I tried the output on the TV and it gives me a picture. Does anyone know what could be. The input on the card is tested with a Sonj 4K camera and gives an image.???

A: I would check your configuration settings on your software. I’ve found that this is usually the problem.
