Re: [Avid-L2] Nitris DX and Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro 4K on same machine?

On my one of my Macs I used to haBe both a BMD extreme pro and A Nitris DX, however I removed the BMD driver.  They worked great, but BMD was for Resolve and Nitirs was for Avid.  I don't think you can have both sets of hardware running in MC.  Maybe if you removed (moved to another folder temporarily) the driver you don't want?  Not a recommended configuration.  

Eventually I just got rid of the nitris, once we stopped printing to tape.

The Nitris DX at one of my client's had been having some issues, so just before the pandemic he bought a BMD Intensity Pro 4K and I was slated to install it for him, but then everything shut down and I haven't been back to his edit suite.

Last week, he needed to capture some SD stuff and he said the Nitris behaved fine and so he asked me today if I thought it would be possible to have both at the same time? ("just in case", he said).

I told him that the BMD card would do component in/out for SD captures, if needed, but he's reluctant to let the Nitris go.

I would be concerned about conflicts with drivers or whether the PCI slot needed for the BMD is the same as the Nitris and AFAIK there's no way to tell MC which hardware to use for output etc, it's either on or off.

Thoughts?

He's on PC if that matters.
