This chapter contains a list of supported video devices to do a playout in SD, HD or UHD. When using a Thunderbolt device from AJA, Blackmagic Design or Sonnet, please make sure that the speed of the Thunderbolt bus is at least 20 Gbit/s (i.e. Thunderbolt 2). This is especially important when playing out in UHD.

- BMD version 11.3 and higher is currently not compatible with our Playout Engine and therefore we recommend to use BMD Desktop Video driver version 11.2 until this issue is solved. Videodevices depending on a higher driver version can not be used.
- When using just:live/play with Blackmagic devices it is not possible to use the DSK-based (
