Blackmagic decklink card not detected

I use a decklink mini recorder card to broadcast a live show on Youtube.

Recently i upgrade my operating system to Mac OS X Yosemite.

Since then when i try to select my camera source from the flash media player settings, the menu only shows me the integrated camera and not my video card.

I have the latest drivers for the video card.

I did a test using different browsers and got the same result.

Flash Media Live Encoder detects the card and the video source correctly and everything works,

but the problem is when trying to select the video source /or camera from the flash player settings using a browser.

The list of available hardware is exposed to Flash by the OS and browser, so it's probably a problem upstream from us.  We test primarily with USB webcams, which continue to work as expected.


That said, I've filed the following bug on your behalf - we might be able to pin it down and escalate it to Apple in a more effective way:

Bug#3858357 - Yosemite - Video Recorder Card no longer displayed as a video input option after OS upgrade

You may want to consider downgrading or dual-booting to OS 10.9 if this is a mission-critical task for you.  Given the interdependencies here, this is not something that's going to get fixed in a few days.
