  • 2 bad HDlinks?

    Posted by Earthworm on January 24, 2008 at 2:29 am

    I’m setting up a temporary edit bay with old equipment… I have an old dual 2.0 G5 with an HD Decklink Extreme (with the single input) and I came across 2 HDlinks around the office that I’d like to use primarily for SD monitoring.
    Neither seems to work, so I’m suspicious that I am doing something wrong in the setup.
    I’ve tried the following displays:
    Dell 1704FPT
    Dell 2007WFPb
    Sony SDM-S74

    I know 2 are 4:3 displays but SD is all I need and I believe these can be used since they run at 60Hz. I’ve tried 3 different DVI cables with no luck. Tried sending both HD and SD signals.

    I’ve updated the firmware. The video status light flashes red but not a consistent blinking.

    Tried the EDID manual override set to 1:1 but still nothing…

    Audio never comes through as well so does that mean it’s not getting the SDI signal?

    What am I missing?
