  • 10. Check in Blackmagic Media Express if there is a signal
  • 11. If there is a signal in Black Magic Media Express, write down the exact figures eg. 1920 x 1080 x 50p
  • 12. In the Stage Designer live media window, DO NOT use the Blackmagic WDM device, use the Decklink device: WDM->unknown, Decklink->known with the exact figures you noted before
