Titan HD

[Sanjay Sami]

I had an issue a few days ago on set.

I am using an Ultra 2 and the camera is the Alexa with the ARRI RAW recorder.

I use the Transvideo Titan HD transmitter.

This has been working great and I have been using it for almost a year now.

The other day, it would not put out a signal that was strong, so we had a guy running along side me with the reciever that was tethered to video village.

Neither the DIT nor I could figure this out, since the next day all was fine again.

The only difference was that I was using gyros on the day that the transmitter did not work well.

Is this coincidence or could it be related ?

Hi Sanjay.

 

Funny, I had the same experience with my Titan HD system.

The image was fine within 5-10 meters, and then the image became more and more noisy like an old VHS-tape.

The setup was the receiver 4 meters up a alu-truss - with one 10dB Rod and four normal antennas. and the transmitter on the back of the camcorder.

We narrowed it down to, that it must have been some radar-interference from a nearby military base by the harbour, where we were shooting.

I upgraded to the new firmware, and I haven't seen the problem since.

 

I have noticed that there's not as good coverage outside, than inside a building.
