This applies to Mac OS 10.7 and MXWendler version 4.2 and above (Windows see below)

Problem:

You can find your Capture Cards in Live Devices, but there is no video signal.

Solution:

Open "Live Devices" from "Settings/Media-Pictures, video and live media"
Mark the Checkbox "Open Live Device Settings on Start"

Change state of your Live device by double-clicking
Set state to known and enter your Capture values

Now a Video dialog should appear with a preview of your live device

Start FXServer/StageDesigner
Open New Clip in Live Editor
Select LiveMedia in DropDown Menu

Using BlackmagicDesign Capture Cards with Windows 7

Setup your Capture Card in Control Panel "BlackmagicDesign Control Panel"
Check in Blackmagic Media Express if there is a signal
If there is a signal in Black Magic Media Express, write down the exact figures eg. 1920 x 1080 x 50p
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
Reduce latency: set Stage Designer / FXServer framerate higher than capture card latency
