San Jose, CA, USA - June 30, 2009 - 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 http://www.blackmagic-design.com/support/.
