Although the Black Magic Intensity Pro is primarily an HDMI card it does have a component input albeit using RCA jacks instead of BNC. My questions to the experts out there is: can I capture Digital Betacam footage using BNC to RCA converters, with the Intensity Pro? Will I maintain the 4:2:2 colour space of the DigiBeta format? What would be the workflow? I have been getting mixed responses and would like to confirm this. Thanks :)

Surely someone ought to shed some light on this topic. Anyone?

Dear Ali,

I would like to help, but have not worked with the Intensity Pro.

I have reviewed the spec's on BlackMagic-Design's website.
