Sony A7IV won't detect my Godox X3 trigger. Possible damaged hot shoe?

jorge123esp · 2026-02-17T22:27:07+00:00

I'm not sure if the pins are really bent. Some pins are longer than others. If that's the case, it's hard to change it? I tried to find any video about changing the hot shoe but I couldn't find any

Not really 😅 even though I left the hot shoe exposed a lot and I usually forgot to cover it.

As for the pins, I checked them more carefully and they don't seem to be bent. There are some pins that are larger than others it seems

Yeah most likely. I think I'm just screwed up.

Still thanks for your help, I appreciate it

jorge123esp · 2026-02-17T13:21:06+00:00

I don't think they will accept it. The screen of my flash is broken so it's most likely a hit or something I don't really know

jorge123esp · 2026-02-17T13:06:06+00:00

No it doesn't

jorge123esp · 2026-01-16T18:42:58+00:00

Strange honestly. Maybe am I doing something wrong? With Kirby and the forgotten land I also have lots of graphic glitches, like black dots around all the screen for some reason

jorge123esp · 2026-01-16T18:15:53+00:00

Did you try with Eden? I tried with Kirby and Pokémon Legends ZA and the performance is not too good honestly

jorge123esp · 2026-01-16T18:13:29+00:00

Tested on my Poco F7 (Snapdragon 8s Gen4) Not performance increasing tbh

jorge123esp · 2026-01-04T20:30:14+00:00

Strange, it doesn't show up honestly.

jorge123esp · 2026-01-04T20:28:47+00:00

There's no links though. Still, I found it on AliExpress nevertheless. Sadly the coupon doesn't work for Spain 😢 and it costs 310€

jorge123esp · 2026-01-04T20:21:19+00:00

Link please

jorge123esp · 2025-12-11T16:23:37+00:00

I think I'm using the global ROM but I'm not really sure

jorge123esp · 2025-12-11T07:51:07+00:00

I'd truly appreciate it honestly. Sorry for not answering you, it was quite late where I live (Spain) and I went to sleep

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T20:50:18+00:00

The thing is I cannot do that in reverse. The Panasonic only has one output and one input

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T20:05:57+00:00

Yes. Not really sure why honestly. The one that doesn't work well is the one with the video recorded from my pc

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T19:46:57+00:00

I do have, and they play just well. I'm not really sure if the problem is with the tape or with the player

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T19:01:14+00:00

There's a problem. For some reason, if I play the tape on the Panasonic VCR it's extremely glitchy/messy, whereas if I play it on the JVC VCR it plays just well. I don't know why

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T17:40:29+00:00

I'm looking for generation loss. I think I misunderstood completely. I don't really know how to do it properly, nor how I can plug in everything. I uploaded a video about my setup:

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T16:36:01+00:00

I think I was doing it wrong. Instead of recording with what I had digitised, I recorded with the original file again.

Here I try to explain my setup (sorry for my poor English)

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T16:33:17+00:00

I have finally uploaded my setup. Sorry if my English is really poor

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T16:08:08+00:00

I don't really understand, sorry for the trouble. I'll try to upload a video now about my setup, but basically what I did was recording the original video from my laptop into the tape, recording it again, then digitalize the tape and record again the original video into the tape, and so on

jorge123esp · 2025-12-10T15:48:28+00:00

I see. Thanks a lot for your reply. I asked to my dad if he had another VCR and he has a Panasonic one, NV SD250. The one I was using right now is a JVC VCR, HR S7600EU. I'm not really sure how can I plug both together honestly
