Device Control
UltraStudio, DeckLink and Multibridge include RS-422 device control for controlling decks.
Blackmagic Device Control is automatically chosen when a new project is created and the capture
format is set to Blackmagic Capture. The choice of device control can also be configured through
Preferences > Device Control.
The Options button is disabled as the settings are automatically detected and configured when you choose
Blackmagic Device Control.
Player Settings
The default player should be switched from Adobe Player to Blackmagic Playback. The choice of player
settings can be configured through Preferences > Player Settings.
Playback
As a quick test to make sure everything is connected correctly, use the Premiere Pro test media (Bars and
Tone or Universal Counter Leader). Drag your test media from within the Premiere Pro project and drop it
on to the timeline. You should now see the image on both your computer desktop and the output of your
Blackmagic video hardware. If you can’t see any video on your Blackmagic output, check the connections
again and ensure you have the correct output settings configured in the Blackmagic Design system
preference. SDI, HDMI and analog outputs are always active.
Capture
To capture choose: File > Capture [F5]
To immediately capture, or to capture from a non-controllable device, click the red record button [G].
If you wish to log the clip using RS-422 deck control with UltraStudio, DeckLink or Multibridge, enter the
desired In and Out points using either the Set In and Set Out buttons, or manually by typing the timecode
and clicking Log Clip. The empty clip will now appear in the Project window. Repeat this until you have
logged all of the clips you wish to batch capture.
To change the capture format, click on the Settings tab and then the Edit button. Ensure the Capture Format
is set to Blackmagic Capture, click on the Settings [Mac] or Properties [Win] button and then change the
Blackmagic Capture Settings as desired.
