Timecode and Genlock in package build

I can confirm that it works. I had to make some amendments to my project settings.

  1. All devices had to be calibrated precisely, so no ‘auto’ settings anywhere in the blackmagic devices.
  2. Timecode had to be set to ‘none’ in the project settings.
  3. Timestep had to be set to ‘BlackMagicCustomTimestep’
  4. In the media profile the Timecode and Genlock settings could not be set to a ‘Device’ but rather an ‘SDI Input’ and in that it you can set a device.

Only then could the packaging work. So that’s definitely something for the documentation.
Opening the package I can indeed see that the debug is showing that the devices are ‘Synchronized’ and set to the FPS I wanted which is 25fps.
