Blackmagic Intensity pro and Premiere Pro CC

There was a time when I could use my Blackmagic Intensity pro capture card to provide output from my premiere pro cc timeline to an external monitor. The card still works well for capturing from an external source e.g. VCR tapes. Also I no longer see any Blackmagic sequences listed in premiere pro sequence options. I have tried uninstalling / reinstalling all the Blackmagic software but get no positive result. I see no helpful discussions on the Blackmagic forum. I have also tried using several custom sequences to see if any produce an output from the timeline. Does anyone have any ideas regarding this problem? I'm using windows 10 64 bit with a GTX 1060 6gb display card.

Go to Edit > Preferences > Playback and make sure to select the correct Audio Device and Video Device for outputting A/V. To capture, make sure to go to the Settings tab in the Capture panel and click Edit to change the Capture Settings to Blackmagic Design.

It was a while since i used the card but i do remember that the card was sensitive regarding settings. If the card is set to NTSC it won´t either input or output PAL and the same goes from frame size. In Windows Control Panel you can find more settings for the card.

Thanks for the prompt reply Averdahl. I have paid attention to all the issues you have mentioned and found no real answer. The card does seem to play the output from the timeline in a basic standard definition DV-PAL setting, but nothing in any HD setting (settings at 25 or 50 fps in my location). I can't understand what happened to the Blackmagic sequence presets which used to accompany the Blackmagic desktop downloads. The card works really well in capturing - both from media express and directly within premiere pro cc. It's the playback which fails.

Thanks for you replies folks. Much appreciated. I'll try Blackmagic support again (not had any real joy previously!),

For anyone who may be interested! I seem to have solved the problem:(I hope!)

1. Clear all Preferences from Prem Pro cc

2. Uninstall/delete all Blackmagic software

3. Download Desktop Video 10.4 (April 2015) from Blackmagic support center

4.Install Version 10.4 (Blackmagic sequence presets now appear in Premiere Pro CC)

5. Select appropriate Blackmagic capture/playback options in Prem Pro CC

Playback now appears on external monitor!

I'm not suggesting this is he best or only solution to the problem - but it seems to work for me!
