We are a power user of BM cards in our audio post environment. I did install these new drivers and deid not notice and change in PT 11 performance.

[Danny Caccavo]

Also, take care, as these drivers seem to add another frame of delay which you'll have to compensate for in Video Sync Offset.

[Audiomatrix]

MUCH better video performance in PT11 vanilla on Intensity Pro card Mac OS X - nudging, dragging and playback start time all dramatically improved with this driver.

+1 on the extra frame delay.

Happy days!

10.1.2 available now.

Pro Tools of any kind are missing from the list. Just installed a Decklink SDI 4K in W8, latest drivers, and can't get either HD10 or HD11 to see it. Is anybody successfully using BM cards for external video in Windows?

Yes, I'm on ProTools 11.2 with BlackMagic Driver 10.1.1 with an Intensity Pro.
All seems to be good, although I wouldn't say it's thoroughly tested at this stage. I also had no problems with ProTools 11.1.3 / BlackMagic 10.1.1 / Intensity Pro.. Windows 7 SP1

..and is there a consensus as to the video frame offset with this new driver?

no, because it depends on various things. the codec, your computer, your screen and other processing in your video signal chain.

you have to syncheck it.
