  • AJA Kona 2 – Disappearing SDI Outputs – AJA Kona 1.2.1 driver

    Hi guys,

    Hope you can advice me if you experience the same issue :

    System Config :
    PM G5 Dual 2.5Ghz
    4GB RAM
    ATTO UL4D
    AJA Kona 2
    AJA IoLA

    OS X 10.4.5
    QuickTime 7.0.4
    ATTO 3.5.0 driver
    FCP 5.0.4

    < Problem > Running 1.2.1 driver, Kona 2 SDI Output 1 & 2 will disappear & comes back during playback, while analog output is fine. Happened after updating Kona driver from 1.1.4 to 1.2.1

    Tried connecting both outputs to the same DigiBeta VTR & the SDI Input indicator will go off & come on again, during playback or edit-to-tape

    These “black flashes” appear randomly & last for a frame or two

    The same issue in FCP & Kona TV

    The same issue for Uncompressed 8Bit in 625 PAL & DVCProHD in 1080/25p media

    Tried a different Kona 2 card & swap the K-BOX to a breakout cable & still the same issue

    < Solution > Un-install 1.2.1 & install 1.1.4 & now the issue goes away

    Does anyone have similar setup & see the same issue ?

    Whats the supported system configuration for Mac OS X, QuickTime version, FCP, ATTO ?

    Cheers

    I had some funkiness when first upgrading to 1.2.1. Trash your prefs & repair permissions. This fixed any weirdness for me.

    Although I am on 10.4.2 & qt 7.0.3
