Capture and playback card for PCIe workstations

The Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro 4K installs in a 4, 8 or 16 lane PCI Express slot to add professional video ingest and output. It targets editors and broadcasters who need uncompressed or compressed 10-bit 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 workflows on Mac, Windows or Linux systems.

HDMI and analog breakout for mixed-signal

A single HDMI 1.4b port handles SD, HD and Ultra HD signals up to 1080p60 and Ultra HD at 30 fps, while the included breakout cable adds component, composite and S-Video connections for legacy sources. Eight-channel embedded HDMI audio and two-channel RCA analogue audio travel with the video, so no separate sound interface is required for monitoring or capture.

DaVinci Resolve and Media Express included

The bundled SD card supplies DaVinci Resolve for grading and finishing, Media Express for deck-style capture, plus Disk Speed Test, LiveKey and the Desktop Video driver suite. Firmware loads automatically at boot or through the updater, keeping codec support current for AVC-Intra, ProRes, DNxHR and other listed formats without extra licences.

Questions about this item

What video frame rate does the card sustain for Ultra HD capture before dropping frames?

Ultra HD capture is supported up to 30 fps, while 1080p can be captured at 60 fps.

How much power does the card draw and how hot does it run during continuous capture?

The card is passively cooled with no fan, so it runs silently and relies on case airflow for heat dissipation.

Which slot type and operating system must the host computer provide for the card to function?

A PCI Express 4-lane slot (compatible with 4, 8 or 16 lane slots) and Windows 7, 8.1 or 10 64-bit, macOS 10.11 or later, or Linux are required.
