Highest Quality VideoMost consumer video cameras compress HD video to fit longer recordings on to tape and discs. For video editing compressed media needs to be decoded to play back each frame of video and this puts additional strain on your computer’s CPU and limits real time editing effects. Capturing directly with Intensity bypasses camera compression by recording directly from the camera’s image sensor, so a low cost consumer camera can be used to capture full HD resolution video in broadcast quality! |
USB 3.0 or ThunderboltIt’s easy to add the amazing quality of Intensity to your laptop, desktop or computer workstation! Intensity is available in different models that connect to computers using USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt technology with the fastest data transfer speeds. Now you can capture the highest uncompressed 1080HD video with portable devices that are powered from the computer connection! That's truly portable! |
Professional Video StandardsIntensity Shuttle and Intensity Extreme offer the flexibility of working with compressed and uncompressed video in standard definition PAL/NTSC up to full 1080HD video. You can capture live game play, archive family movies and create amazing videos in full broadcast quality video! Blackmagic Design’s Media Express software is included for a complete capture and playback solution without the need for any additional software. |

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
1. Motherboard needs onboard USB 3.0. Please make sure this has the NEC chipset. This is very important.
2. Or a USB 3.0 PCI Express card and an X58 or P55 series motherboard.
3. Dedicated video card. Onboard video cards will not work.
4. Windows 7 64 Bit
5. Ability to write to your hard drive at ~200MB/s (could be significantly higher depending on recorder settings)
6. Large amount of storage space. If you are used to a PVR this will come as a surprise to you. Files are massive.
This can be very cost prohibitive for most people. If you are only uploading to YouTube, the gains you will see are probably not worth the money in my opinion. You are better off with a PVR. If you already have a PC that meets the requirements of the BMI shuttle, then pick it up. It is about the same price as the Hauppage PVR.
I moved to the BMI shuttle for these reasons.
1. HDMI recording. Digital recording.
2. Consolidation - With this being on HDMI, I will minimize my current A/V setup. It has become quite a mess with cables and component amplifiers running everywhere.
3. Hauppage has become unreliable - I have had the PVR for a couple years now. I have recorded hundreds of hours of gameplay with it. Lately it has become increasingly unreliable. It locks up constantly. I need to power down and back up again for it to work. I think its life cycle is about over.
4. Better quality video - Not only is it better in quality but, it comes out in a format that is friendlier with Sony Vegas. I will not have to convert files to a better format before editing like I do with the Hauppage PVR. My workflow will be faster.
Bottom line, the quality gain over a PVR is very noticeable. This requires a very strong PC. Make sure you do your research first.
We strongly recommend that you ensure full system compatibility before laying down ~$200 on the Intensity Shuttle, let alone anything else for that matter. If your system bus doesn't meet the 5Gb/s bandwidth requirements of the Intensity Shuttle then you might be better off with the PCI-e based "Intensity Pro" and if you don't have a free PCI-e slot then you might want to check out the external USB 2.0 HD PVRs offered by Hauppauge, Avermedia and Elgato.
A few minutes on the manufacturer's web site, Blackmagic Design, will lead you to their FAQ on their USB 3.0 products (which we also posted as a Discussion at the bottom of amazon's product page), such as the Intensity Shuttle, outlining what exactly is required for a system to be able to use said product(s). Blackmagic Design employees also post on the their dedicated Creativecow forum, where you can also get support from fellow members. A lot of valuable information can be found there regarding their products, including the Intensity Shuttle, which helped in our system build and eventual purchase of the Intensity Shuttle.
As specifically stated on that FAQ, "Intel X58 series motherboards with onboard USB 3.0 support are required to support Blackmagic Design's USB 3.0 video products. The onboard USB 3.0 support of other motherboards, such as the P55 series, cannot be used." If you are using a P55 / x58 motherboard, or any motherboard for that matter the PCIe slot you are using must support the full 5Gb/s bandwidth currently requested by the Intensity Shuttle. This is in addition to needing the USB 3.0 card to be in a x4 PCIe or x1 PCIe 2.0 slot of the motherboard.
The produdct will display a bandwidth error message if your system does not meet the 5Gb/s bus speed requested by the Intensity Shuttle. If you are unsure of your system's bus speed, then you should contact the manufactuer of your board, ask for help on a relevant computer forum, and/or download one of the various programs designed to provide system information about your computer.
Blackmagic Design specifically lists in their FAQ four seperate x58 series motherboards that have been verified to work with their USB 3.0 products, and those include the "ASUS P6X58D-Premium, ASUS P6X58D-E, Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7, and Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD5."
In addition, USB 3.0 Expresscard Adapters for laptops will NOT work as the USB 3.0 Host Controllers used in these adapters DO NOT currently meet the requested bandwidth requirements of the Intensity Shuttle.
For reference, here are our system specs:
ASUS P6X58D-E motherboard.
Intel i7 950.
Windows 7 64bit Home Premium.
12 GB RAM.
1 TB HDD(WD1002FAEX).
* Please Note, this system was built to be compatible with the Intensity Shuttle.
Our Review:
As per the "Read me before you install" PDF included with the Intensity Shuttle, and found on their web site, we identified the Driver and Firmware version of our USB 3.0 Host Controller. Since ours need to be updated to work with the Intensity Shuttle, we went to the link included with the previously mentioned PDF and downloaded the required files. Updating the Drivers and Firmware was straight foward and a breeze.
We then downloaded and installed the latest "The USB 3.0 Desktop Video drivers" and "Media Express" software direct from Blackmagic Design's web site as the versions included with the Intensity Shuttle are not current.
The Intensity Shuttle was then connected to our computer and our Xbox 360 via HDMI at 1080i. Next, we went into the "Blackmagic Control Panel" in the "Control Panel" of our Windows 7 computer to ensure all the inputs/outputs were set to our needs, HDMI video and audio. We then launched "Media Express" and set the "Preferences" to our needs for recording from an Xbox 360. We are using the compressed MJPEG codec at 1080i59.94FPS which works flawlessly even on our single "WD Caviar Black" HDD.
Right out of the gate the Intensity Shuttle has worked great and is definitely a better overall product from it's similarlly priced competitor's NOT to mention the previous PCI-e based HDMI Intensity Pro. Being powered directly by the USB 3.0 connection is nice since we don't have to deal with an additional AC adapter and can easily unplug the device when it's not in use. Please Note, that the Intensity Shuttle must be plugged in and the Media Express program must be running (active/inactive) for the outputs to work. We typically unplug the input and directly connect it to our display when we are not recording footage on the Intensity Shuttle. That way we don't have to have our computer on all the time while using the source device(s). Since the Intensity Shuttle is an external device it can be placed right out in the open, and it's convenient to not have to reach behind a computer tower to connect/disconnect the inputs/outputs.
Regarding other similarlly priced external HD PVR's (Avermedia, Hauppauge, Elgato), these don't have HDMI as an input and force a limited bitrate cap on capturing footage from any of the inputs. The higher the recorded birtate the better the video and audio quality of the captured footage. A lower bitrate can lead to artifacts and blocking on the footage, especially if you are to later render the footage additionally for use in an edited video. The bitrate caps are most likely a result of being limited to the speed of using a USB 2.0 connection on these HD PVRs.
Thankfully, even though the MJPEG codec on the Intensity Shuttle is compressed, it is leaps and bounds better than the 10-25 Mbps bitrate caps on the previously mentioned HD PVRs as it uses a very high birate (automatically adjusts depending on what you are capturing). Since MJPEG footage is very large in size you can easily render it down to whatever bitrate you want to also decrease the filesize. If you really needed to you can record uncompressed (a RAID setup is strongly recommended). If you are going to be uploading videos to the internet on sites like Youtuhe then we recommend a video bitrate of 60 Mbps for the least amount of degredation in the picture quality. You can get away with 10 or 20 Mbps, but from our experience, 60 Mbps is well worth the additional upload time of a larger size video file. You will of course want to test various rendering bitrates based on what it is you are capturing and your own preferences.
We are really enjoying the new updated 2.+ version of Media Express as the previous designed version was limited. Being able to individually name recorded files direct from Media Express makes identifying recorded footage a lot easier. One thing to note, is that "Media Express" and your computer must be active in order for the Intensity Shuttle to output to an external display. However, even if you aren't using your computer you can easily disconnect your source device and plug it directly into your display. Also, you will want to use a 1920x1080 display for your computer's desktop with Media Express as anything less doesn't show the entire program. There is a "Compact" mode for Media Express but you cannot customize the size of the window manually. The Intensity Shuttle is compatible with various other software so you don't have to use the included Media Express software.
When we record 1080i footage from an Xbox 360 we deinterlace the footage using a custom VirtualDub filter called "Smart Deinterlace 2.8 Beta 1 by Donald Graft". This has removed the combing effect of the interlaced footage and is preferred over the included deinterlacing options of varioius video editing software programs. The end results are better in our opinion.
As always, do your homework to make sure this is the right product for you and your computer. We've tried to be as thorough as possible regarding what we've learned about the Intensity Shuttle and it's system requirements so you really need to ensure compatiblity before you buy something that is NOT compatible with your computer. Most online and B&M stores have at at least a 30 day return policy so if the Intensity Shuttle isn't compatible on your computer or you are dissatisfied with the product return it within 30 days. We purchased our Intensity Shuttle from Kellards who use Amazon.com to ship their products and the purchase was automatically tied in with amazon.com's 30 day return policy which is pretty straight forward and easy to to use to return a purchase. However, have haven't had to return the product since we made sure our computer was compatible before buying the Intensity Shuttle.
Be sure to visit Blackmagic Design's web site for their FAQ, product manual, the latest software (drivers/firmware), and various other product information. As we previously mentioned, Blackmagic Design also maintains a forum on the CreativeCow web site where you can get help and support from other members including the staff at Blackmagic Design.
Hopefully this information will be helpful so that you DO NOT end up being one of those complaining about the incompatibility of their computer and the Intensity Shuttle. Typically a result of not reading up on a product's minimum system requirements before purchasing.
UPDATE:
A representative of Blackmagic Design has stated that they are working on a stepped down version of their software to allow those with a system using a 2.5Gb/s connection to work with the Intensity Shuttle. Therefore allowing lower resolution and/or compressed capture without the requirement of handling 5Gb/s. Which will be great for lower end systems, laptop's and/or those that DO NOT currently meet the 5Gb/s currently needed to use the Intensity Shuttle. While it may be preferred that this product was released with this option it is good to know that this is something that's being developed.
As well, Blackmagic Design and Fresco Logic just recently announced Fresco Logic's development of a new USB 3.0 host controller, the FL1009, which will be able to handle the large bandwidth requirements of 1080p60FPS. Current USB 3.0 Host Controller cannot handle 1080p60. Whenever this is made available as a PCI-e add on card you then be able to record 1080p at 60 FPS, assuming your system is compatible. This is something that those with an Xbox 360 should be interested in as it outputs 1080p at 60FPS.
Top reviews from other countries
Es stimmt, dass das Gerät nicht mit allen USB 3.0 Anschlüssen funktioniert. Das mussten auch wir feststellen. In Verbindung mit einem Lenovo Notebook E550 (i5. 12 GB Ram, 2TB externe USB 3.0 HD) funktioniert der Wandler einwandfrei. Bei unserem HP Pavilion Entertainment Notebook (i7, 12 GB Ram, 6TB HD intern) ist der Treiber installiert und funktioniert laut Windows 10 Pro Gerätemanager einwandfrei, aber BM Media Express liefert im Capture Modus noch kein Bild. But we're working on it! Das muss irgendwie funktionieren!!! Notfalls werden wir mit den Leuten von Blackmagic Kontakt aufnehmen.
Am Lenovo Notebook ist eine 2TB-USB 3.0 Festplatte als Aufnahmemedium angeschlossen und wir haben bei FULL-HD Recording mit 10 Bit YUV keine Dropframes. That's Great! Mehr Qualität ist derzeit nicht möglich bei einer direkten Y/C und FBAS Verbindung mit den Zuspielern ohne Zwischenschaltung eines Framebuffers.
Bei einem weiteren Test haben wir eine Aufnahme in unserem Studio A über den Wandler in Verbindung mit einem JVC KM-3000 YUV-Component Videomischer und angeschlossenen JVC KM-F250 Timebase Correctors durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse sind absolut perfekt. Jetzt werden wir den Wandler komplett in unseren Studiokomplex integrieren und die Captures in unseren Blackmagic Resolve 14 NLE Editsystemen weiterverarbeiten. Somit lassen sich auch Kameras live in Resolve 14 oder Fusion einspielen. Damit sind alle Kriterien erfüllt, die wir an einen solchen Wandler zu diesem Preis stellten.
Einziger Nachteil des Wandlers ist die fehlende Synchronisatiosmöglichkeit auf einen Studiotakt. Das spielt aber bei der Digitalisierung keine große Rolle.
Ein Hinweis für Amateuranwender:
Das ist ein absolutes Profigerät und erfordert dementsprechende Kenntnisse in der analogen und digitalen Videosignalverarbeitung. Ältere Konsumer Videorekorder haben u.U. nicht die Qualität eines stabielen Ausgangssignals, um von diesem Wandler ohne zwischengeschalteteten Framebuffer optimale Ergebnisse zu liefern. Es ist unbedingt wichtig, sich vor dem Kauf zu informieren und insbesondere sich bei Blackmagic auf der Webseite Schlau zu machen. Das Gerät hat absolute Studioqualität und kann dementsprechend nicht in jeder Amateur- (Konsumer) Umgebung funktionieren! Dies bitte nicht negativ auffassen, aber gewisse Voraussetzungen müssen einfach erfüllt sein um positive Ergebnisse zu erzielen.
Gerade 30 Minuten FBAS ohne Drop Frames aufgenommen... das ist hervorragend. Der Wandler ist sein Geld wert und nur zu empfehlen!
