Hi, As Reuben mentioned, we can not use "H264 Pro" with ffmpeg and there should be another way to use this card. But about quality, It depends on application. It can be use in some lightweight projects when you should transcode your live content again and send to origin servers(to webcasters). But here is another question: With which Blackmagic cards we can use ffmpeg? Now I have these cards: *Encoders:* 1. H264 Pro (Encodes input stream to h264 - USB interface) 2. Ultrastudio Mini Recorder (Gives RAW video - Thunderbolt interface) *Decoders(Playout):* 1. Decklink Mini Monitor (send video to HDMI/SDI output - PCIe interface - Decklink family)
I expect to be able to use Decklink family with ffmpeg. I've tested H264 and Mini Monitor on windows with no success. also installed ffmpeg on MAS OS and used with Mini Recorder But still no success. I also should mention there is no decklink support on mac. Here is my installation script: > brew install ffmpeg --with-fdk-aac --with-ffplay --with-freetype --with-frei0r --with-libass --with-libvo-aacenc --with-libvorbis --with-libvpx --with-opencore-amr --with-openjpeg --with-opus --with-rtmpdump --with-schroedinger --with-speex --with-theora --with-tools --with-decklink and here is my ffmpeg command to list input devices: MacBook-Air:bmdtools $* ffmpeg -f avfoundation -list_devices true -i ""* ffmpeg version 2.8.6 Copyright (c) 2000-2016 the FFmpeg developers built with Apple LLVM version 7.0.2 (clang-700.1.81) configuration: --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/ffmpeg/2.8.6 --enable-shared --enable-pthreads --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-hardcoded-tables --enable-avresample --cc=clang --host-cflags= --host-ldflags= --enable-opencl --enable-libx264 --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libvo-aacenc --enable-libxvid --enable-libfreetype --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-librtmp --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libfaac --enable-libass --enable-ffplay --enable-libspeex --enable-libschroedinger --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-libopus --enable-frei0r --enable-libx265 --enable-libopenjpeg --disable-decoder=jpeg2000 --extra-cflags=-I/usr/local/Cellar/openjpeg/1.5.2_1/include/openjpeg-1.5 --enable-nonfree --enable-vda libavutil 54. 31.100 / 54. 31.100 libavcodec 56. 60.100 / 56. 60.100 libavformat 56. 40.101 / 56. 40.101 libavdevice 56. 4.100 / 56. 4.100 libavfilter 5. 40.101 / 5. 40.101 libavresample 2. 1. 0 / 2. 1. 0 libswscale 3. 1.101 / 3. 1.101 libswresample 1. 2.101 / 1. 2.101 libpostproc 53. 3.100 / 53. 3.100 [AVFoundation input device @ 0x7f8bd0d00300] AVFoundation video devices: [AVFoundation input device @ 0x7f8bd0d00300] [0] FaceTime HD Camera [AVFoundation input device @ 0x7f8bd0d00300] [1] Capture screen 0 [AVFoundation input device @ 0x7f8bd0d00300] AVFoundation audio devices: [AVFoundation input device @ 0x7f8bd0d00300] [0] Blackmagic Audio [AVFoundation input device @ 0x7f8bd0d00300] [1] Built-in Microphone : Input/output error Can any one help me about at least using ffmpeg with compatible divices?
