    If so can you list your Decklink settings and monitor settings? I'm getting funky colors on the FSI when it's set to Video: SDI Format: Auto.

    When switched to Video: SDI Format: 4:4:4 RGB... I get no video signal. Davinci Resolve is set to output RGB 4:4:4 Single Link.

    Looks like the problem is that Decklink HD Extreme 3D+ is not SMPTE 425 compliant. This royally sucks. The 3 Gb/sec SDI on the Flanders Scientific LM-2461W is Level A SMPTE 425M-A or Level B SMPTE 425M-B.

    Well I communicated with FSI via email and God bless them, they tried to help me to their best ability but the problem really lies with Blackmagic. Looking at the spec of the Decklink Extreme 3D+ and the FSI LM-2461W monitor it's clearly apparent that they are not the same SDI standard. Of course if someone on here has it working in (3G) mode "properly"... I would love to know how. Waiting until the morning to call Blackmagic due to offices closed over weekend.

    hmmm. Well that sucks Andrae! If it is of any help, I've got the FSI 2470 10 bit monitor and have no problem displaying 3G out of the Decklink Extreme 3D+ card. So if FSI has shifted thier standard implementation of the 3G SDI, you can let them know that what they did for the 2470 worked fine with the BM card.

    FYI- I was just on the phone with Dan at FSI and asked him about this. He said they were expecting to come out with a firmware update sometime very soon (this week) which addresses this. Since they learned of the problem a couple of days ago, I'd say this is pretty responsive customer service.
