ProPresenter 7 - Blackmagic DeckLink Duo 2 - Setup

[@cutitout01]

I wish I could like this enough times to make it show up first whenever anyone searches for how to setup a Decklink with ProPresenter. I would have saved myself several hours trying to figure it out yesterday. Thank you so much for posting!

I highly recommend this video for anyone struggling to set up their Decklink Duo with ProPresenter 7! Thanks for the section on using an SDI port as a video input. I now understand the purpose of the channel audio assignment features within ProPresenter. Thanks and keep up the great work.

This was very informative and well explained. I don't have a decklink yet so i bring my 4 port atem mini into pp7 as a web cam via the usb port and then i overlay graphics that way. I can stream directly from pp7 but i like to send NDI to another machine running OBS for even more flexibility. Cant beat the decklink for driving lots of screens. And of course you can use it to switch video if your computer has enough resources to handle all the streams.

As someone with the bigger Decklink Quad 2, THANK YOU for showing the labeling in the Desktop Video Setup About section. So Usefull!

This has been so helpful! I've got video from our switcher into PP7 & got everything else running well, expect struggling to the embedded audio from the switcher into PP7

The way you setup your stream is great, such that when you clear (F1) it still remains.👍

[@SliwkaProductions]

Really helpful! Thanks Man 👌

Ross, you're my hero!

[@anthonyh6039]

Can you do another video, where you talk at the end about overlaying lower thirds and freeing up 2 decklink duo ports

[@prettyfacezz]

Thank you to sharing this video , i learn a lot in this video. God bless.

[@vickoemmy7083]

Please what version of blackmagic desktop video did you use?

[@pierrefuller72]

Do you have somewhere that describes your hardware connections to make all this work? My production manager bought a lot of new gear including an ATEM Mini Extreme Pro ISO, Cinegear SDI receivers for our cameras, and Blackmagic SDI adapters, and I want to make sure we are connecting everything correctly. We don’t stream from ProPresenter. However, we are trying to get the lower thirds out of PP into our ATEM Mini Extreme Pro ISO.

Are the 4 outs on the deck link going to 4 inputs on the Atem

[@deangass8505]

Can you have 2 Decklink Duo 2's on the same Mac / Propresenter instance giving you 8 inputs or outputs?

[@trentheston4208]

Can the original DeckLink Duo be used for alpha keying or just the DeckLink Duo 2?

[@josuealvarado1757]

I can’t get my deck link to show on the video software I am using echo se1 sonnet and deck link duo 2 thunderbolts 3 to new mini Mac with new chip it’s not connections do you have steps or is there a driver I need? Please help

[@lfisher8154]

When you install the video software from Blackmagic it uses an extension and you will need to grant permissions on your mac. Tech support at Blackmagic can walk you through how to grant the permission it if you need help

[@saifgedawy3677]

I wannna ask about something plz
If i have 4 sdi camera i can use all sdi as input or must use 2 as input and the others not working in the same time

[@rossstratton4828]

Hope you figured it out but you can use all your SDI ports for either IN or OUT on a DeckLink. It is configureable anyway, 4x IN, 2x IN 2x OUT, 4x OUT and anything in-between.
