How to use Blackmagic as a preview output frame buffer
To allow your Adobe After Effects composition to be displayed in real-time through your Teranex 2D
Processor, go to Preferences > Video Preview. Select Blackmagic Video Output and the appropriate Output
Mode. This lets you view your Adobe After Effects compositions in the correct video colorspace on your
broadcast monitor as you work. You will always see the correct color and interlace when working, and you
don't have to wait until your composition is rendered to see what it looks like when output as video.
If you also want to listen to audio through your Teranex 2D Processor, set the "Default Device" to "Blackmagic
Audio" in Preferences > Audio Hardware and Preferences > Audio Output Mapping.
Rendering
When you have completed your composition, you will need to render to a pixel format supported by your
Teranex 2D Processor hardware. You can render to a DPX image sequence or any of the following supported
codecs:
QuickTime codecs on Mac OS X
‚ Blackmagic RGB 10 bit (uncompressed)
‚ Apple Uncompressed YUV 10 bit 4:2:2
‚ Apple Uncompressed YUV 8 bit 4:2:2
Other codecs including ProRes and DVCPRO HD will be available if Final Cut Pro is installed on the same
computer.
‚ Apple Photo - JPEG (compressed)
‚ Apple DV - NTSC (compressed)
‚ Apple DV - PAL (compressed)
