Thanks, I was finally able to find the links. Here they are for anyone else that may need them: TitanHD: http://www.transvideo.eu/en/Wireless-HD/TitanHD-Rx Boxx Meridian: http://www.boxx.tv/products/meridian/broadcast/index.html Thanks again for all your help!

Does anybody have any links for the TITANHD system? I can't seem to find it anywhere on Google (keeps coming up with iPad apps......) Thanks!

Thank you all for the replies, as I would fear, it seems that the CamWave and Microlite just wont work. I would like to know more about the TitanHD and the Boxx Meridian. Anyone know how much these are? I think the LINK system would be too expensive based on what people say, but on the other hand, my boss REALLY wants to get this going so maybe he would be interested in that as well. I am still looking for someone who possibly figured out some way to get either the CamWave or the Microlite to work, though. I still have a glimmer of hope! ;)

I am working for a TV station that uses a Steadicam in studio for live bumps and segments. It is a completely wireless setup. We began this project by using a IDX CW-5HD transmitter and receiver combo. The two receivers are placed as follows: One inside the studio for studio segments, and one receiver in our back lot studio for outside segments. We noticed that we were always taking random video loss hits on the SteadiCam, mostly on the out back receiver but some on the inside receiver. We have tried every preset frequency that the IDX will allow, but nothing seems to fix it. It is odd that outside takes more hits, considering there is more open space and direct line of sight to the IDX (The IDX is a line of sight RF system) than inside where there is other equipment. We even contacted IDX who sent out a team of engineers to check RF interference and other settings, even replacing our unit with a whole new unit. Nothing works. We even took the whole IDX system out into the middle of nowhere to check if it was indeed some sort of RF interference, and it also didn't work out there. The IDX engineers just finally said they have no idea and stopped troubleshooting... Then we decided to try a whole new system, from MicroLite HD. The model is 58MLT. This system works much better in terms of a solid video signal, but now our problem is with latency between audio & video. We run our audio through a separate system (wireless mics and audio board, like any other TV station) but the Microlite adds between 7-9 frames of delay for processing, which makes our lip sync off and unusable for air. We have toyed around with the settings to no avail, and even contacted the company for assistance who basically told us that the system was designed to have audio and video embedded in the same stream to avoid lip sync issues (which we cannot do logistically). So my questions are: 1) Has anyone used either of these two system in the setup configuration that I described? If so, how in God's name did you get it to work properly? 2) Does anyone have a different solution for a completely wireless Steadicam system that is working for them? I have researched and researched and cannot find out how to make this darn thing work. Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! ------- Justin
