10.11

Changes since VideoTools 2.4

• Updated to Blackmagic SDK version 10.6.1.
• Added the new 4K video modes available in the latest Blackmagic SDK (2160p50, 2160p5994, and 2160p60).
• Fixed a potential crash when selecting a video mode unavailable on the selected Blackmagic device.

Credits

• The Blackmagic Capture patch was commissioned by Stuart White of Control Freak Systems.
• Support for selecting and simultaneously capturing from multiple Blackmagic devices was sponsored by Igloo Vision.

Known Issues

• ProRes 4444 format does not support transparency (so videos are fully opaque)
• H.264 videos stutter when played backwards
• All VideoTools patches provide only video input, not audio input
• Firewire cameras only support certain combinations of Color Coding, Resolution, and Framerate. Watch the Error output and Console log when troubleshooting.
• Due to issues with the underlying frameworks, video device info cannot be queried once a video device is in use. Therefore Video Device Info is only updated once: when the composition is first started.

Changes

• Added workaround for bug in QuartzComposer.framework on Mac OS 10.11, which creates the offline rendering context without a depth buffer, causing incorrect rendering.

Known Issues

See the QuartzCrystal 2.0 release notes.

Changes

• Added "Query Headers" input to the HTTP Query patch. (Thanks to @incubo for sponsoring this!)
