Welcome

We hope you share our dream for the television industry to become a truly creative industry by

allowing anyone to have access to the highest quality video.

Previously, high end television and post production required investment in millions of dollars of

hardware, however with Blackmagic Design video hardware, even Ultra HD 60p is now easily

affordable. We hope you get years of use from your new UltraStudio, DeckLink or Intensity and

have fun working with some of the world’s hottest television and design software!

This instruction manual should contain all the information you’ll need on installing your

Blackmagic Design video hardware. If you’re installing a PCI Express card, it’s always a good

idea to ask a technical assistant for help if you have not installed hardware cards into computers

before. As Blackmagic Design video hardware uses uncompressed video and the data rates

are quite high, you’ll need fast disk storage and a high end computer.

We think it should take you approximately 10 minutes to complete installation. Before you install

Blackmagic Design video hardware, please check our website at www.blackmagicdesign.com

and click the support page to download the latest updates to this manual and Desktop

Video driver software. Lastly, please register your Blackmagic Design video hardware when

downloading software updates. We would love to keep you updated on new software updates

and new features. Perhaps you can even send us your latest show reel of work completed

on your Blackmagic Design video hardware and any suggestions for improvements to the

software. We are constantly working on new features and improvements, so we would love to

hear from you!

Getting Started

Introduction to Desktop Video

This manual takes you through computer system requirements and installation instructions

for Blackmagic Design’s Desktop Video hardware and software, and how to use them with your

favorite third party software.

The software includes drivers, plugins and applications like the Blackmagic Desktop

Video Setup, and Blackmagic Media Express for fast capture and playback. Blackmagic

Desktop Video software works in conjunction with your UltraStudio, DeckLink, Intensity or

Teranex hardware.

System Requirements

Your computer requires at least 8GB of RAM to efficiently process video.

Mac OS

Blackmagic Desktop Video software runs on the latest versions of Mac OS.

Windows

Desktop Video runs exclusively on 64-bit versions of Windows 10 and 11 with the latest

Windows updates installed.

Linux

Desktop Video runs on 64-bit x86 computers running Linux 3.10 or higher, and on AArch64

computers running Linux 4.9.140 or higher. Please refer to the release notes for the latest list of

supported Linux distributions, package formats and software dependencies.

Connecting Power

If your Desktop Video hardware includes an external power supply, simply connect it to the unit

and switch on the power.

5Getting Started

TIP DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G can also be connected to additional power using

the power adapter cable included with the card. DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G is very

powerfuland we are always looking for ways to provide additional features, such as

mezzanine cards for expanded connectivity. For this purpose, we have included a

power adapter cable so you can plug in additional power if future hardware expansion

on your DeckLink card draws more power than your computer’s PCIe slot can provide.

If you need to supply external power to your DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G you can easily use the supplied

power adapter cable. Simply disconnect the power from your graphics card and plug it into the

adapter cable. The plug willonly connect to one end so there’s no way to connect it incorrectly.

Connecting Video Hardware

There are three types of connectors your Blackmagic Desktop Video hardware may use

toconnect to your computer depending on your model. These connection types include

Thunderbolt, USB 3.0, or PCIe.

Connecting via Thunderbolt

Blackmagic UltraStudio 4K and UltraStudio 4K Extreme feature two Thunderbolt™ 2 ports so

ifyour computer only has a single Thunderbolt port, you can use the additional port to attach

aRAID or other device.

Blackmagic UltraStudio 4K Extreme 3 has two Thunderbolt™ 3 ports and UltraStudio HD Mini

has one Thunderbolt 3 port, for up to 40Gb/s data speeds. When connecting via Thunderbolt

3, connect your Blackmagic Desktop Video hardware directly to the Thunderbolt 3 port on your

6Getting Started

computer using a Thunderbolt 3 cable. Connecting to a Thunderbolt 2 port on your computer

via a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter is not supported on bus-powered products like

UltraStudio HD Mini.

Make sure your computer is Thunderbolt 3 compatible by looking for the

Thunderbolt icon near its USB-C connector, as shown on the right.

Connecting via USB 3.0

Connect a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 cable into the USB 3.0 port on the unit. Plugthe other end of

the cable into your computer’s USB 3.0 port.

Connecting a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 cable to Intensity Shuttle

Connecting via PCIe

Blackmagic Design PCIe cards plug into a PCIe slot in your computer. Check the information

printed on your card’s box to determine the number of PCIe lanes your card requires.

Forexample, depending on your PCIe card, it will require a x1, x4 or x8 PCIe slot.

It’s worth noting that you can insert PCIe cards into higher capacity slots than they require.

Forexample, a x4 lane PCIe card can be inserted into a x16 lane PCIe slot, though not the other

way around.

If you can’t find the information you need on the box, you can find the number of lanes

yourcard requires, plus other helpful information about your card, in the tech specs at

www.blackmagicdesign.com/products

7Getting Started

Install a Blackmagic Design PCIe card in a spare PCIe slot. If your card

includes an HDMI bracket, it can be installed in any spare PCIe mount and

connects to the rear of the card with the supplied HDMI cables.

Please be careful when installing your DeckLink PCIe card

toavoiddamaging delicate components on the card.

If your card includes a breakout cable, simply plug it into your card’s breakout cable connector.

8Getting Started

Connecting UltraStudio 4K Extreme via PCIe

UltraStudio 4K Extreme and UltraStudio 4K Extreme 3 can also connect to your

computer via PCIe using a PCIe adapter card and cable. Both UltraStudio 4K Extreme

and UltraStudio 4K Extreme 3 need to be connected to a PCIe Gen 2 slot in your

computer. The Blackmagic PCIe Cable Kit contains a PCIe cable and the PCIe adapter

card and is available from your nearest Blackmagic Design reseller.

For the original UltraStudio 4K Extreme, you can use either the Blackmagic PCIe Cable

Kit, or purchase a standard PCIe adapter card from your nearest computer store.

UltraStudio 4K Extreme features a PCIe port for connection to an

external PCIe adapter card that is installed in your computer

The PCIe adapter card is inserted into a PCIe Gen 2 slot inside your computer

Connect the other end of the PCIe cable to the

PCIe port located at the back of your computer
