This isn't exactly a Hackintosh fix post but if anyone was struggling with getting their Intensity Pro card working with El Capitan on either their old MacPro or Hackintosh the solution was easier than anticipated and the culprit was Blackmagic's lousy website. Yes, the Intensity Pro drivers stopped working on Mavericks on up. And there was no longer updated explicitly named "Intensity Pro" drivers it seemed. Blackmagic would not respond to any of my requests for help. Google searches provided no solutions. Then I built my Hackintosh (i7 4970k, Gigabyte Z97 Gaming 5, GTX 960) and I wanted to see if i could get the card working as I have a ton of video to transcode. My son, actually, downloaded a file called "Desktop Video 10.6.4" https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/ca/support/family/capture-and-playback.
Nowhere in their specs do they include compatibility with first gen Intensity Pro cards. But, low and behold it works. I've seen several posts about the Intensity Pro card, and I thought I would provide this note to anyone struggling with it. Works fantastic BTW. In fact, the sync issues I had with running the card on the Mac Pro, seem to be gone. Amazing.
