Decklink Desktop Video v15+ on Mac OS 14 Onwards

In all versions of 15 and beyond BlackMagic have made a change to how the driver extensions work meaning your Decklink device will not appear in Mac OS until you follow these steps.

Do the following in this order.

  • Remove old version of Desktop video via the uninstaller if pre v15 and restart when prompted
  • Install new v15 (latest was 15.3.1 at time of print)
  • Once installed open system settings and head over to extensions
  • Ensure BM driver is enabled – See screenshot 1
  • Now open Driver Extensions and do the same – See screenshot 2
  • Now head to the newly created Camera Extensions and enable – See screenshot 3
  • Now head back to Driver Extensions and enable the other newly created driver – See screenshot 4

It may now pop up with a firmware flash requirement, if so proceed. When complete do a full power cycle then enjoy your now available Decklink Device.
