has anyone actually tried this thing
-
here it is
the black out was caused by interference
so i had forgot the tin foil but i had a CLIF BAR
wrapped the wrapper around the antenna and BLAM stable picture hehe
-
i like the shot in the dark jess,i have and i will try different cables again today
and i am going to take some tin foil and see if that will help lol "old school"
and a big thanks to all
Just a shot in the dark but HD-SDI can be finicky so im thinking maybe it could be possible that insufficient shielding in the video cable is allowing the modulus transmission to interfere with it. When you touch the antenna your body is absorbing some of and/or blocking some of the signal so there is less interference. Try a different HD rated video cable to the monitor and see if that improves things. Interference could also be happening within the miranda...

hey erwin thanks for the response,
i had the power rewired so it shouldn't be getting video down the cable,
but why when i physically hold the antenna the picture comes back up
on my sled monitor and yet i never loose picture on the wireless monitor"menehunes"maybe lol
Hi Mark,
Are you torturing my Modulus again? Shame on you...
I was wondering...
Why does your down converted image as well as the HD signal come from your miranda in the first place?
I had issues where the signal that was down converted was not strong enough and just got lost in the cable connections... HD is an iffy signal to begin with.... or it's just me... we'll see.
Did you try and run your monitor directly from the camera, as to separate the signal before the down converter?
Might be one of those wired signal loses...
"signal from a miranda direct composite signal to modulos "
Does that mean that you are running power from the rig AND a video cable from the miranda into the Transmitter?
The cables that you got with the Transmitter are video/power cables and if you plug in an additional video cable, you are effectively double terminating the video signal...
Check and let us know...
Aloha,
Erwin

my modulos powered by the sled,
signal from a miranda direct composite signal to modulos
not looping thru the monitor,monitor has hd signal from miranda,
but when i power up the modulos the monitor blacks out,
than i physically grab the antenna on the modulos and the picture comes back
grounding issue maybe and this has also happened using an aja downconverter

i have had my nebtek hd monitor for about 3 maybe 4 years now and its been great,
i have used in every camera application i can think of and it always worked well even in the infant days of the red,
also a big thanks to having hd/sdi thru my post,but any ways "huge" props to nebtek and there team
for some speedy repairs and great support,
they got my monitor on monday and i got it back on thursday and i live in hawaii and i am loving the new software updates,
framelines and false color man these guys rock and i can't wait to get the new solar hd monitor,
i have always said you get more bang for your buck with the nebtek monitor and its built tough
-
Yep I just started last week and I feel like the biggest wimp ever trying to keep up. I hope I start getting stronger. It is tough.
aloha bj,
hope all is well and what was it that you were
saying out in the water that day in hawaii

hey jess
i am flying the sachler hd sdi pro rig
i have done this before with no problems many times
but i am also wondering if it is the build
i am currently on build 21,i am powering the modulus
thru the sled but with a different battery
many thanks
Can't the RED do multiple SDI lines out? Have you tried hooking the AJA directly to the RED to see if you still have this problem? What sled do you have? If the HD-SDI signal down the post isn't the strongest the modulus could be providing enough interference to kill it. Or of course the RED could be freaking out for some reason, are you powering the modulus from your sled or the red battery?~Jess

PATHS:red cam sdi out thru post
sdi signal to monitor loop out-
sdi signal to aja
aja sd out to post
back up post to modulos 3k
everything working turn on modulos
monitor goes black
monitor shows no signal
-
check out "nebtek",last i spoke with them
they were updating the 7'' monitor to 1000nit,adjustable framelines,
4x image flip,underscan,blue only,3x peaking
and sdi,sd,rgb,composite signal inputs and outputs
give gaylan a call @ (801)467-1920
he is really easy to talk to
best regards

got a chance to test out the bfd away from the capitol building
and it working just fine,so i am sure that there is some serious
rf or defense technology going on at our state capitol building and heck why not
-
the handle rocks
It's hard to find one were it's all about the Gimbal...Can you still see a clear vieuw on your tb6? It looks like its a difficult angle to watch the frame. Just curius.
Best
Hi Job,
It's a bad angle on the picture to show... but the view of the TB-6 is actually hugely improved. Your right hand is usually directly where the screen would be, but with the ergo the hand is about 2 inches further away from the center post/ Gimbal cup and it gives you a clear view to the green...
Later,
Erwin
PS: Actually, Greg used to send out demos... give him a call if you are seriously interested.
In the mean time. I recieved my new xcs gimbal. Didnt had the time to use it, as i have some holiday, ( yeah yeah i know, but my wife and kid needs it lol ) but it sure looks like a fantastic piece. Cant wait to spin it

aloha jim
it happened at all positions on the thumb wheels
but like i said maybe it was location,i was smack dab
in the middle of the state capitol building here on oahu
or its just little menehunes
If this is happening when the calibration knobs are all the way towards each other (at the stops) you may need a new calibration pot. They tend to wear out in exactly this fashion. They way to tell is to move the knobs slightly away from the end and see if the problem stops.Jim "Pot expert" Bartell

hey guys
yesterday my bfd w/m-one was chattering @ set up
had the thumb wheels all the way in towards the toggle
and the motor just kept chattering back and forth
like it was searching for a home position
any thoughts, i thought it might be because of location maybe lots of rf

hey brahdah robert
man next time you are in hawaii let me know
i'll make a very,very good mug of kona coffee
ya know the kind that will make you wanna crawl
out of your skin and run around lol
nah budz i hope all is well with you and yes i
still got your note on my case it will be there forever
and thanks for lookin that stuff up
best at ya kiddo :)
Hey Mark, not enough espresso yet so I can't remember his name but I'm pretty sure they normally use an op from New Orleans. I'll text Angel Vasquez who was the lead Utility on it and find out for you.All the best!

what build are you currently using,
i had the same problem last week but it only happened once
so we powered down rebooted than it never happened again
and we are using build 18,and i am not flying the ultra sled
makes me think its the camera
-
hi janice
if you look in the reflection of the car you can see that the op is on foot
but after that oh baby baby lol that made my day
Hi all;Really fun to watch.
I have two points.
1) the words are all backwards on the shops and buildings, etc.
2) I think its a vehicle shot of some sort. The women are walking at a good clip and the camera never hesitates and it even moves left and right for some things on the route.
Darn, now you'll have to watch it again!

yahhhhh
this guy was the show

aloha eric
thanks for that,what a great overview
by the way did you have a look at the transvideo hd monitor by chance
supposedly its around 1000 nit
best regards

looks super nice
thats one tough cookie

Loved it... More of a musical montage. I'm about to do a viral music video for my sons best friends dad and had worked out a one'r, but I do like the subtle usage of cuts for the indoor/outdoor transitions. Very well put together. Making me rethink the whole one take/one song idea into a montage of the four songs they have.
Thanks for sharing.
edit: How did you guys fare in the competition?
we won it,so we got bragging rights lol
