Blackmagic Design General Information

Use the DeckLink control app to select BMD DeckLink output signal options.

DeckLink SDI support in CalMAN, for sourcing VirtualForge calibration signals, is currently limited
to the default YCrCb 422 10-bit pixel format, which the DeckLink control app does not provide
the option of changing.

CalMAN does not support DeckLink HDMI outputs for sourcing VirtualForge calibration signals.
The DeckLink HDMI outputs are range-compressed to SMPTE-legal levels, which CalMAN cannot
disable.
