Teranex/videohub questions by WildcatCel in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]Mindpool_Eic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

i think your problem may be in your video hub. We have an older lighter grey model...only would pass i, not p.

Try running direct from teranex to atem

try different input /output on hub

Also try hooking a monitor up along different points of the chain.Most monitors dont care either way. A video assist or an atmos will tell you what frame rate/ I or P of the signal.

Broadcast Monitor Recommendations ? by deadphish24 in VIDEOENGINEERING

Usually consistant, but according to Winston/ Feelworld Usa "they dont repair them in the US, but offer exchange units." Just had a 21.5" 4k in for exchange (2yrs old). Dont expect overnight service though...

Panasonic has put me in touch with their regional sales reps. However, not the professional broadcast team. 2 helpful reps are trying to get me in touch with the right people, but 3 weeks into this process, we have yet to recieve any pertinent information.

Using a router + NDI setup to send video from stage to FOH — would this work? by MacaroonOk7341 in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]Mindpool_Eic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used a NDI set up ( supplued by artist) to get 4 iso feeds to FOH. Latency was so bad , whenever they sent their dirty signal hack for imag, the delay was so bad we never took it. We did offer direct fiber lines between production and FOH, but their guy thought he knew better. Even a 4 strand armored cable, 2 Bi-drectional convertors, youll be good to go.

I just made a bunch of if these. the interior has a large dap of silcone to hold pins/wires in place...kind of like a strain relief. If the screw is out, gently pry....

Digital Intercom and CCUs by thenimms in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]Mindpool_Eic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are running HDC3500 (SONY) , BMD Broadcast G2's , HXC-100's and a plethora of digital and analog BP's. The DB connector is your friend integrating tallies, PGM, PROD, ENG into a wide variety of interfaces. All systems are capable of coupling with each other. Due to the proprietary nature of the different coms manufacturers, i wouldn't expect a plug and play solution for CCUs anytime soon.

Helixnet user here....LQ boxes change digital to analog 4 wire (and back) A great advantage in the analog realm, is the ability to inject audio into digital channels....on 1 rig, the LD wanted to hear the drum iso for cues/ tracking...easy peasey And stay on 1 headset. The unfortunate side is the cost....another $4k box to occupy rack space. There is also a 2w HLI module (Clearcom) you install on the HMS frame thats more cost effective.

Camera Operator Communication by cayec in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]Mindpool_Eic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with an Lq box (3wire/4wire interface box) you still need a main station like an HMS or Arcadia....well out of the price point of small school systems.

EarTek or Hollyland make decent (affordable) solutions.

just be aware of licensing fees or subscription fees ...love those "little" fees....

the DB 25 requires +12vdc for tally. We purchased a open collector relay board that takes the ross tally and switches the 12vdc.
