I did check it a while back and it was fine. I had to install a graphics card in order for Media Express to work. Right now I'm using the on-board VGA for the display. I didn't think I needed a high-end display card just to run the service manager. Anyway I think you and I are seeing the same symptoms. I'm using 720 @ 30p.

If that works then we probably have the same problem - I can see the video fine in Media Express but vic just shows a black screen with any codec or size. Here we have the Blackmagic Intensity Pro cards with Sony HDR-SR11 cameras, which are AVCHD. Side note: I don't think the recording format makes much of a difference, just the specific video format, as in 1080i at a certain framerate. Nathan, is vic expecting a certain framerate? The format that worked with Media Express was 1080i @ 59.97. If it's only been tested with PAL so far, I would hazard a guess and say that the NTSC isn't using the right format/framerate in some way. --Andrew 2009/2/17 Jimmy Miklavcic <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Mike, it's great news that you have been able to get HIT Lab's vic to work. I haven't been so lucky. I have AVCHD (Panasonic AG-HMC150) video cameras. Mike I think that you have MPEG2 based HD cameras. Are yours Sony? Nathan, I don't think you tested with an AVCHD camera. All I get is black, which I think tells me that it sees the video card but not, the video stream. Mike, did you use 1080i/p or 720p? If anyone has any suggestions, I'm open.

Not bad on bandwidth usage either. Mike
