The Drivers are a 538mb .tar.gz file, Simple Steps:
1. Download the
latest drivers from the blackmagic website (10.5.4 at the time of this post), put these in a
folder in your home directory, say called "blackmagic".
2. Download the
PKGBUILD from the AUR (Download Snapshot on the AUR page for
decklink). Extract "PKGBUILD" and "decklink.install" to the folder you made in step 1.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/decklink/
3. Get the
sha256 checksum of the driver package you downloaded.
In a terminal within the same directory as the downloaded file type:
sha256sum Blackmagic_Desktop_Video_Linux_10.5.4.tar.gz
This will then print out the sha256sum we'll need to put in the PKGBUILD file next:
5. Edit the
PKGBUILD file you extracted from the snapshot with your favourite text editor, it's just a normal text
file, change the "sha256sum=('checksumhere')" to the new one you got from
step 3.
Also change the "source=("/path/to/Black_Magic_blahblah.tar.gz")" to the path to the file you downloaded in step 1.
You'll also need to change the "_dvver=" line to
"_dvver=10.5.4a4" and the "_mever=" line to "_mever=3.5a9"
6. ... FINALLY it's time
to install the PKGBUILD: Open a terminal in the directory you've been
working in and type "makepkg -sri" - this should make an installable
arch package and install it.
Or you can then manually install it whenever you like with the command "sudo pacman -U decklink-10.5.4a4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz" obviously changing the command to whatever the
generated file name is you just made.
Provided everything was done right it should now be installed.
