Blackmagic Design Inc. today released support
for software developers who want to use DeckLink, Intensity and Multibridge products
on the Linux platform.
Support includes the software driver and an SDK for developers, and can be downloaded
now from the Blackmagic Design web site, free of charge.
All developers now have a full featured Software Developer Kit (SDK) that allows
any software developer to build custom Linux solutions. With products such as
Blackmagic Design's DeckLink SDI at only US$295, customers now have a true 10
bit SD and HD-SDI capture and playback solution with tri-sync/black burst reference,
low SDI jitter and RS-422 deck control that's extremely affordable. When combined
with low cost PC hardware, Linux developers now have everything they need to
build high end broadcast solutions.
“Using the Blackmagic DeckLink Linux SDK, we've been able to quickly add SD and
HD-SDI capture to our web-based video editing platform, FORscene,” said Jeremy
James, Forbidden Technologies plc. “The affordable DeckLink SDI will allow us
to offer integration without requiring unnecessary hardware features or external
converters.”
Availability
Linux SDK support is available from the Blackmagic Design web site at www.blackmagic-design.com/support/.
