14 Capture video and audio using Blackmagic Design DeckLink SDI or Intensity
17 Please ensure that you use a MLT profile that is compatible with a broadcast
18 standard which the card you are using supports. If you must use an interlaced
19 profile but wish to deinterlace or scale the input, then you must use the
20 consumer producer, e.g.:
21 melt -profile square_pal consumer:decklink: profile=dv_pal
23 - It is incompatible with the yadif deinterlacer.
24 - Transport controls such as seeking has no affect.
25 - External deck control is not implemented.
27 - identifier: argument

52 title: Max Frames to Buffer
54 There is a queue of frames between this plugin and its consumer.
55 If the consumer has a little, intermittent delay then it reduces the
56 risk of dropping a frame. However, this provides a maximum number of
57 frames that can be buffered to prevent consuming memory unbounded in
58 the case of frequent or sustained delays.
