Review on DeckLink Mini Recorder by Blackmagic Design (BDLKMINIREC) by Steven Doty

I'm giving this a very low rating because I think it's stupid that it doesn't support 1080p60hz. SDI port AND HDMI 1.4 port, both of which support 1080p60hz. The supplied software supports 60 Hz HD. And yet for some reason trying to send a 1080p60hz signal to these (either SDI or HDMI) just fails. No scaling, no "I'm trying" glitches, just a black screen. I literally plugged it into a Blackmagic HDMI to SDI converter and it still refused to work. The cameras I tried to connect to it don't allow me to accurately specify the frame rate of their output (why would they?), so I had to return them.
