TwoHDMI inputs combined shaky on output


Brecht

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I have been using Datapath VisionLC-HD2 (2 x HDMI input) for over a year now, and it has been working fine. We use our WO server for a tv show where we get 2 SDI inputs which we convert tot HDMI. Since last week the signal output is shaky. I found out that when I pull out one of the two inputs (doesn't matter which one) the other one is becomes stable. If I look directly to the inputs using the Datapath software these inputs are ok, so I guess it is WO that can't cope with the 2 HDMI signals at the same time (all of a sudden). That is ofcourse strange because it worked untill last week. I'm sure nothing in the setup or preferences in WO changed, since I am the only one operating it.

I also have a Blackmagic SDI input card, and when I connect one of my two inputs it works ok, together with the other input on the HDMI card. So the result is ok, but I really want to find out why I suddenly have that problem when connecting the two inputs on the HDMI input card.

Anyone?

 

Thanks!

If you haven't changed anything in your system and WATCHOUT used to play the two signals ok before, I would rather guess that something in your server or in the incoming signal flow incl. the cables has changed or got broken.

The DataPath utility uses the proprietary DataPath driver, WATCHOUT uses the WDM driver. Since they are using different drivers that conclusion is invalid.
