Are there any guides out there on how to set up the Blackmagic Design Intensity pro for PC streaming? I'm wondering specifically on how the connections to it work. Do you connect an HDMI splitter to your video card and send one to your video card and the other to the Blackmagic PCI card? How do you stream sound if your video card is only set up to do video?

Thanks

The best setup is cloning your output and attaching the BMI as a 2nd monitor to your video card. This way you don't have to worry about HDMI splitters and such. BMI can do audio over HDMI, or you can just get a stereo splitter for your speakers/headphones and send that into the line in (sync will be off by a some mostly unnoticeable amount of milliseconds with this method).

Rich,

And Xsplit will see the BMI as a video source and stream the output to Twitch(or whatever sevice someone is using) with minimal impact the machine as a whole(in theory)? I am preparing to order a capture card and do want to spend $100-$200 and I want to make sure it is going to do what I expect.

Hey guys, when I start streaming with Xsplit, I can play the game fine. However, my friend says they see my games in almost pick blackness. They can hear the sounds but not see well. How can I fix that?

You need to set SC2 into windowed fullscreen mode. That should fix things!

To reiterate, is there a suggestion list for AMD Processors for streaming?

EDIT: Browsing the thread, I'm coming up with anything better than or equal to AMD Phenom II X6 1100T?

Quick question: What is the recommended setup for 1080p? I've just gotten an industrial FiOS connection (100/100) and I wanna go full HD on my stream, but don't know how to tweak the settings properly so I won't give my fans or viewers any trouble when watching the stream 'cause they might not have enough DL bandwidth.
Any help?

1080p comfortably would require at least a i5 2500 or even better a i5 2500k, a 2600 or 2600k would help alot more with hyperthreading. 3-5mbps is the usual bitrate for 1080p content. Depending on your viewers they would need that much to view your stream, unless you were partnered.

a 1100t @ 4ghz can stream decent 720/1080 depending on settings

you have to be partnered or request this option from twitchtv/own3d.

I second this. I use a AverMedia Game Broadcaster HD to do the same job... the only difference is that I route my audio through a mixer to give me ultimate control over Game Volume / Skype 1 / Music / Skype 2 etc. With a 2 PC setup you can really push the limits.

Sure. Adjustable bitrates (or transcodes) are limited to partners at this time. The reason being is each transcode requires dedicated resources on our servers. Which means that someone who has 20 viewers uses as much of said transcoding resources as the streamer with 15,000. Because of this we've limited this feature to the partner program.

You can find information about the partner program at http://twitch.tv/p/partners - if you click "apply today" you'll see the requirements.

Hopefully this helps answers some questions.

It's completely valid. Intel is better (proven through benchmarks) at almost every pricepoint.

Is there a "rough standard" for bitrate of a 720p stream? My upload averages 3.5 Mbps but for some reason I can't pass the bandwidth test on anything above around 1500kbps bitrate, and I'm just wondering what the typical benchmark for a 720p stream is (perhaps I'm overdoing it, or my connection just fails)?

Also, there's no mention of this that I can find, but what is "Interleave audio and video in one RTMP channel"?

Hardly. At Newegg the FX-8120 is against the i5-2500 which does well around $200, but the match for the FX-6100 is the i3-2100 dual-core at $150.

To stream at all at that point you actually need the AMD. But I gather the guide is geared towards who wants to go all out HD streaming without much concern to cost.
