Manual for original Blackmagic Intensity pci-e card

[ereiamjh]

Does anybody have a downloadable version of the manual for the original Blackmagic Intensity card? I'm talking about the old PCI-e version. Not the "pro" version, but the original one with just two HDMI ports.

I don't need any help. I know the manual will be largely outdated. I just like having the manuals for my gear.

Is this what you're looking for?

Thank you but no. I'm after the manual specific to the old Intensity card, released circa 2006/2007.

It'll look something like the one that I have attached, which is for the Intensity Pro. I'm looking for the old non-pro version

Sorry, I only just saw this post.

Yes, that's the card - but that's not the manual. That's just a guide showing how to use it with a particular JVC deck.

BM has a horrible way of making access to their manuals, they pack it with advertising style materials, In most cases you have to browse hundreds of pages to get to your specific model, and when you do find it there isn't a lot to read just basic setup.

try contacting black magic design and see if they have the manual
or try asking on their forum - https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/

Their manual is called BM Desktop Video software pack, It comes in a zip file with drivers and applications, download it and follow the installation instructions PDF file, there is no such hardware manual other than a basic setup diagram which is obvious in your case. They have Apple approach when it comes to their devices, Everything is proprietary.

That's possibly true in more recent years, but I'm quite sure that their legacy products had dedicated manuals. The Intensity Pro certainly had one (I uploaded it further up in this thread) and that was only released a few months after the original Intensity. Both share the same packaging design.

Either way, it's no big deal. I don't particularly need it.
