I finally had time to investigate the issue. It looks like that as of 11.5, the DesktopVideoHelper.service has to be running for the capture card to work properly.

I spent a few minutes fixing it. These two patches fixes compile issue for me on 5.18.1-arch1-1

It looks like this kernel patch is what broke it: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/a16ef91aa61ac2a42b1bb199fccb897d54ab3dcd

Basically just a deprecated API getting removed. It doesn't look too hard to fix. I actually messed around with a patch, but didn't quite get it working. If anyone knows how to contact blackmagic that might be the way to go.

DKMS compilation currently fails:

Unfortunatly I don't have working blackmagic hardware anymore so I cannot help you. You should ask directly on their forum or open a ticket with their support.

Blackmagic Intensity pro 4k is unable to be seen but is visible on windows and DesktopVideoHelper.service is enabled and started

if using thunderbolt blackmagic devices this appears to fail. (with recorder 3g for me, latest linux kernel 5.16.11-arch1-1). Kernel driver chokes and segfaults https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?t=146431&p=805146

I have installed my intensity pro 4K and this package and the desktop video setup cant find my card, despite it being visible in hardware settings. I'm on kernel 5.15.19, has an update broke this since it was last working?

I also think that it is better to introduce as few patches as necessary. For now it is not an issue but I suggest you to inform blackmagic that they should update before it becomes one.

@Ammako dkms.conf is provided by the package, so as long as it still builds it seems like overkill to introduce a patch just to remove it.
