In this video I will walk you through the steps I use to make my BlackMagic Design UltraStudio Mini Recorder work as an input to Skype using my Panasonic G85 camera.ДЎ - Open Skype and go into the Preferences - Audio Video PanelДў - Connect the thunderbolt cable to the BMD USMR *without anything connected to HDMI*Дў - The BlackMagic UltraStudio Mini Recorder should come up as a source with a black 16:9 displayДЈ - Plug in the HDMI cable into the cameraД¤ - Plug in the HDMI cable into the BMD USMRДҐ - The camera should display in the preview videoД¦ - Ensure the audio source is changed to the UltraStudio Mini RecorderД«lackMagic Design UltraStudio Mini Recorder. In the current (and I am assuming future) scheme, the USB-C 'alt mode' capability is essentially being used to carry the TB protocol over the wire, so it is basically a nested protocol now being carried within the USB connection, much like you have TCP and UDP that get carried over IP which can be carried over Ethernet, PPP, etc.How to make Skype work with a BlackMagic Design UltraStudio Mini Recorder! While incorporating it into the spec may result implementation being a bit more widespread than it is now, it still may not be entirely universal. Looking forward to the day when USB4 is mainstream and this distinction goes away.ДЇrom what I have read, they are incorporating TB into the USB spec but as an optional feature, so not all implementers of USB4 are guaranteed to provide TB support. It can get confusing because the same physical connector is used for both types of ports. A Thunderbolt 3 port can work as a USB-C port, but the reverse is not true, an ordinary USB-C port cannot behave as a Thunderbolt port. Unfortunately due to protocol differences, you still can't use a Thunderbolt 1 device with a USB-C port (even with an adapter).Дave Del Vecchio wrote:Unfortunately due to protocol differences, you still can't use a Thunderbolt 1 device with a USB-C port (even with an adapter).Not if it is a USB-C only port, but if it is a TB3 port (which usually doubles as a USB-C port) you can use Apple's adapter as it is bi-directional.Yes, that is what I mentioned earlier.

And actually the UltraStudio Mini Recorder and Mini Monitor as HD-only devices work fine within the Thunderbolt 1 bandwidth specs. USB-C 3.1 Gen 2 has a bandwidth of 10Gbps which is the same bandwidth as Thunderbolt 1.

The built-in driver supports the essential functions of Blackmagic UltraStudio Mini Recorder hardware.

The UltraStudio HD Mini is Thunderbolt 3 native, but a bit more expensive.ДЇrank Engel wrote:USB 3.2 on a USB-C connector maxes out at 20 Gbps which is the speed of Thunderbolt 2.ДЇrom what I have read it is expected that Thunderbolt may eventually be rolled into the USB standards as an optional feature of sorts and the two may eventually reach performance parity, but for now Thunderbolt is staying a bit ahead of USB-C.USB4 is supposed to be based on the Thunderbolt 3 protocol, so presumably at that point they will become compatible with each other:Д«ut for earlier versions of USB-C there are protocol differences with Thunderbolt that go beyond the simple bandwidth differences. Blackmagic UltraStudio Mini Recorder drivers are typically built-in (included with your Windows Operating System) and are also accessible through most Windows updates. You need to make sure that it is actually a Thunderbolt 3 port though (not just USB Type-C, even though both use the same kind of connector).ДЇor the UltraStudio Mini Recorder in particular, which is a Thunderbolt 2 device, you would need to use a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter if you want to use it with a Thunderbolt 3 capable computer. But there are a decent number of Windows laptops with Thunderbolt 3 ports. Note that there are only a few Windows laptop models with Thunderbolt 1 or Thunderbolt 2 ports that were ever produced.

I also use an ASUS laptop with a Thunderbolt 3 port that works fine as well.ДЄnd then I have also used a variety of Mac hardware (mostly MacBook Pro and MacBook Air) with Thunderbolt ports, but running Windows, and these have worked fine with Blackmagic Thunderbolt capture devices as well. This includes the UltraStudio units and DeckLink cards in a Thunderbolt PCIe enclosure. I have used Thunderbolt with Blackmagic capture devices on Windows with various Intel NUC computers without any problems.
