BlackMagic Design Desktop Video Updated To 12.8, Now Works On macOS Sonoma 14.2.1... But Only With Resolve...

 DV version 12.7.1 was broken with Apple update to Sonoma, not even launching.

BMD just updated their DV app to version 12.8. It is now recognized by Macs M1s with macOS Sonoma 14.2.1.

Shows up in system report, good.

Launching fine, great.
Version 12.8

It works fine with Resolve, I can output to my external monitor without problems, so that's progress.
It shows in Resolve settings, and it outputs playback just fine from Resolve!


--- Now it still does not work with Final Cut Pro... 😩 Weirdly the Video Standard for Final Cut Pro is empty. Nothing under the drop down menu, it's empty. 😕

No way to select anything in FCP Video standard. That's not normal.

In FCP Playback settings, no way to select BMD output, it's not there.

--- It doesn't work with Premiere Pro either... Even though in Premiere case, it shows in the Playback settings.
Blackmagic Playback available from Premiere's preferences.
It shows in Premiere, but no output...

So, some progress, but it looks to me that Sonoma 14.2.1 is still blocking the output to Blackmagic devices.
I feel BMD has figured it out for Resolve, since it's outputting on playback no problem, but Final Cut Pro nor Premiere is able to output.

In the Read Me document, BMD state that Sonoma, listed devices and listed softwares are supported, but that's not entirely the case in my experience. 😞

Blackmagic Design Desktop Video 12.8 Update

 BMD Desktop video software 12.8 is available as of today.

I mentioned the previous version of DV 12.7.1 being broken on macOS Sonoma 14.1.1.

I've now updated Sonoma to 14.2.1. Hopefully this DV update fixes the problem and we again have access to BMD in/out devices on Mac with Sonoma.

I will report as soon as I have a moment to install.

From the BMD website:
