this is what i was able to try so far, i connected my wii using wii component cables, wii set to 480p, no picture if the blackmagic is set to component mode, but if set to composite (green shares same input jack) is black and white and double imaged on screen,
if the wii is set to 480i how ever, and the card is swiched back to component mode, you get a color image that looks normal...

so then i was able to remember how to accesses the shaw box resolution settings (power + settings button) and after testing each mode 480i 480p 720i 720p 1080i. the only mode that it will display useing component cables from the shaw box to the black magic, is 480i, all other modes will not display any picture. what i know from this is that atleast all the card's plugs cand cables are fine, what i dont understand is why it will not accept higher res modes... it was designed to do that right? i just wish i had a none hdcp hdmi output i could test... sigh.

any thoughts?

thanks for the help so far.
