You are not going to fix this without replacing the hardware in front of
the decklink. The matrix switching its input source is doing a hard switch.
It's the equivalent of quickly unplugging and plugging something else in,
so that is going to cause problems. You have to have a matrix switch in
front of it that internally synchronizes the inputs and doesn't interrupt
the signal when switching between them. It may have worked with analog, but
digital is a lot more fragile to interruption.
