I have tried several different mini converter boxes, all to no avail. But the BMD switcher refuses to recognize it. The video signal is good and displays just fine on any monitor we connect it to. We have an Aurora DX2W input plate with HDBaseT extender/receiver back to our video room. SURELY there has to be a way to be able to capture the input from the Preacher's / Presenter's computer at the front of our church, and mix it into the live video feed using the BMD switcher noted above. I too am having trouble with computer video input into the ATEM 1 PS 4K. If you get an SDI output out of a device and feed it directly to a monitor you may get a picture at 60 hz or 59.94 as they are more forgiving of the vertical refresh rate. When you set the frame rate with the SwitchResX software, create a custom output and SAVE it. I was using a blackmagic DVI extender from the out of the Mac. The output needs to be 59.94, not 60.ĪTEM will not see it unless you fix this frame rate. I believe my problem was similar, and I solved it today.

SWITCHRESX 4K SOFTWARE

We are running 4.2 software on a Mac for control btw.

SWITCHRESX 4K PC

We have had luck with the PC running extended desktop via HDMI out direct to 4K but clients require the Playback Pro. we normally use the DVI out to go into our old switcher via HDMI but cannot get the ATEM to see the Mac.

Now download and install RDM to actually be able to select the resolution.John Faulks wrote:Just got my first PS 4K been running this afternoon one of our workflow requirements is to playback videos via playback Pro. You need to disable System Integrity Protection first.) (If you also have El Capitan you will not be able to copy something to /System. I want 1920x1080 as HiDPI resolution so I will use the file above (which already contains the right resolutions) and copy it to the right destination which in my case for the Dell U2515H is: sudo cp ~/Downloads/ist /System/Library/Displays/Contents/Resources/Overrides/DisplayVendorID-10ac/DisplayProductID-d06eĪfter a restart of my MacBook I can use 1920x1080 HiDPI resolution.

I will simplify the procedure from here on, if you want to know the whole process read the step-by-step tutorial on the PropertyList Parser and Generator page. When you scroll down on the tool page you will see detailed instructions you can use if you have a different monitor. The tool PropertyList Parser and Generator will do all that for you. The first two blocks represent the actual resolution which you get when you convert the hex values to decimal values. Now you need to know that the two last blocks are fixed values to flag the resolution as HiDPI. When you decode the base64 String you get four 8-Bit hex blocks The first resolution is represented as base64 String like this: AAAKAAAABaAAAAABACAAAA= Since we don’t speak jibberish let’s pick the first resolution entry and explain it step by step. Approximately 32 cappuccini later I finished coding a working React application that generates and parses ProperyList Files for Custom Scaled Resolutions. There isn’t! Being a senior rockstar frontend developing space cowboy, my mind came up with “I can write some browser tool to do this and it will be awesome!”.

Challange Accepted!Īlright! So there must be some config file somewhere to tell macOS to do what I want it to do!Ĭoming across RehabMans post in the awesome forum about how to actually write a config file to tell macOS what resolutions you wanna have - which includes converting stuff from integer to hex and then combine stuff and convert it to Base64 to finally write a XML file - I thought: “Isn’t there any easy and free way to do this?”. So if you want the easy way out, get SwitchResX or QuickRes and stop reading since it will get very technical from here on. Ok - I have to admit - there are some tools like SwitchResX or QuickRes - which are great - but they cost money and beeing a Geek it is embarassing to admit not beeing able to teach macOS how to do this on your own. There is no such thing to easily achieve HiDPI resolutions on an external Monitor. After some intense clicking around in the monitor settings and some googling the sad reality caught up with me.

So coming from Windows and just recently switched to mac I thought: “I will just have to scale the fonts a little like I do on Windows with 150% or so….”. Forcing a HiDPI Resolution on Dell U2515H Enabling HiDPI will not lead to optimal results, since the monitor should have a 4k or 5k resolution, but it will improve the picture a litte. When I say HiDPI, I mean the pixel-doubling a Retina display does to get this super awesome smooth and sharp picture.
