About
Think of the UltraStudio Mini Replay 12G as a PCI capture card for a desktop computer but it is external to the computer, and because it powers / passes signals through a Thunderbolt 4 or 5 interface, it can be used with laptops. Capture is only half of the story though because the 40 Gigabit per second standard that Thunderbolt 4 uses is actually bi-directional. That means this box can also output a 12G video signal at the same time that it is taking a 12G video signal into the laptop. 12G denotes a signal with a resolution of up to 4,096 x 2160 pixels, at a frame rate of up to 60 progressive frames per second.connection.
The UltraStudio Mini Replay 12G uses the same software as Blackmagic Design DeckLink capture cards. The driver supports deep colour bit depths and formats like 4:2:2 and 4:4:4. The graded output supports all popular video software including Open Broadcaster, Final Cut Pro, Media Composer, Premier Pro, Fusion, After Effects, Photoshop, and of course DaVinci Resolve. The Replay in its name means it has a special integration with BlackMagic’s DaVinci Resolve software if you are using it for live production: feed your switcher’s multiview or program feed into the input, and Resolve can record it and play back instant replays (with stingers) straight back into your switcher. It also has dedicated fill and key outputs, so it doubles as a graphics playout device for keying lower thirds and overlays over your program.
It handles everything from standard definition up through Ultra HD at up to 2160p60, with 16 channels of embedded audio on the SDI input and outputs. Note that this model is SDI only (no HDMI), so pair it with one of our Micro Converters if you need to get to or from HDMI.
