		Nope - I sent Kristian a request for an update a few days ago... no reply so far. I really am unimpressed with BMD at the moment!

		On August 21, Kristian Lam emailed me apologizing for the late response, and stating "Steve shaw did get in touch with me we're looking into the issue he's reported."

	Steve Scene	#33 \| Posted: 4 Oct 2012 20:30
		Yep, they have been 'looking into the issues' for a year, since I first brought them to their attention... no progress so far

	Gabriele Turchi Mono	#34 \| Posted: 5 Oct 2012 21:47
		i have sent an email as well and no response ... g

		I emailed Kristian as well, will update here if I get a response... Are there other 3D LUT holder boxes that output 10-bit ? Thanks. - M

		Davio, Pluto, Tcube and the three main 'professional' LUT boxes... eeColor say "This should work. We will be able to confirm sometime in December as we'll have access to Quantum Data HDMI analyzer and will be able to verfity 10 bits in and out of the box." I'll keep you informed. Steve

		Steve, just checking: did you mean "are the three main 'professional' LUT boxes..." or are 3 additional boxes you did not mention ? Thanks. - M

	Steve Scene	#38 \| Posted: 1 Dec 2012 10:00
		3 main professional (that means with HDSDI capability). The 'and' should have been 'are'... Steve

	MForrest Mono	#39 \| Posted: 6 Feb 2013 21:38
		Still no fix for this?

	Steve Scene	#40 \| Posted: 6 Feb 2013 21:49
		Sorry to say BMD have given up even communication about the problems... After admitting there was a problem, and suggesting they would look into it, all has gone quiet. No e-mails answered for months. And certainly no fix released. We have given up on them... Steve

		Is this a problem when using SDI loop-through, or only with DVI conversion?

	Steve Scene	#42 \| Posted: 9 Mar 2013 16:56
		Any connection, when a LUT is used. The box is unusable for any accurate LUT application.

		Crashes blacks if i compare for example to Penta monitor

		Ugh. Well glad I found this thread before I unpacked the HDlink Pro we just got in for our new grading room. Back to BH it goes. Honestly, between this, the BMCC shipping problems and the Hyperdeck Studio Pro blow back they are dealing with I don't see how they sell any product at all anymore. So, what card/box would you recommend at this point. We'll be going from DaVinci to a PanaPlasma. Had bought the HDlink primarily for the SDIHDMI an LUTs.

	Elliott Mono	#45 \| Posted: 13 Mar 2013 03:27
		What about live grading softwares like LiveGrade and LinkColor? These work with an HDLink Pro, but I'm not sure they apply a LUT per say. Does the device have the same accuracy problems in this scenario?
