    Channel B Input not working?

    Posted by Jeremy Evans on March 21, 2006 at 1:08 pm

    Hi,
    I’m hooking up a Digibeta deck to my multibridge and there are 2 SDI Ins and 2 SDI Outs on the right side (looking at it from the back) Focusing on the Ins, Channel A is the only thing that seems to be working. I should be able to plug my digibeta deck ino Channel B In to get an SDI signal, but as of now I need to unplug the Channel A on the multibridge connected to the Dual Link 4:4:4 card and swap it with the deck to get a signal. Is there a setting I’m missing?

    The Outs work fine. Channel A out goes to the card, and Channel B out is going to the deck.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Jeremy

    Dual channel in is ONLY for RGB, so when you have YUV signal then it is channel A only whne its RGB HD its channel A+B

    Hi Kasper,

    So there is only 1 SDI In from the Multibridge and it is being taken up by the card?

    Thanks,
    Jeremy

    Hi Jeremy,

    Channel B Input is used for dual link 4:4:4 HD-SDI. It cannot be used as a seperate SDI input.
