Component out issues
Hi,
I am trying to output video via the Decklink HD Pro DL PCIe version. I have downloaded the latest drivers and hooked up my Sony PVM-14N2U via the RGB cables. All I get are green squiggley lines. There is a bit of a picture in those green scan lines, but obviously not a usable one. I am not that familiar with the video nomenclature, but the BNC cables are labeled R-Y/R (I am assuming this is red), B-Y/B(blue?), Y/G (green?). I hooked the corresponding ends to the R,G and B plugs on the rear of the monitor. Lastly, there is a BNC cable labeled Reference In, I am assuming this is hooked up the the EXT SYNC plug on the back of the monitor. All I get are the green lines. Have I connected the cables incorrectly? I am able to connect one of the BNCs to a composite in and it works although it doesn’t look all that great. Lots of waviness and some scan lines, but an image. I really don’t think that it is the monitor, it has served me well before and gets a great image from the firewire out to a camera then out to S-Video. I am a bit concerned because there is rapidly closing window in which I must return the decklink card for a full refund. All cables are new. I am running FCS 2 (6.0.2). Please help!

I have been able to get an image by setting the sync on my monitor to “sync on green”, but the image is all green. Any ideas?

hmm. rgb is different than y r-y b-y component.. are you able to get the composite output to work from the decklink to the monitor? I say lets start simple and see what works. I have a few sony crt’s that have bad component inputs, luckily they have two…

you cant hear my inner voice scream… can you..?

Hi Chris,
Your monitor is expecting an RGB signal while the card is sending out a component Y,R-Y,B-Y signal which is why it’s not working. Some monitors have switchable RGB/Y,R-Y,B-Y inputs but it seems like the PVM-14N2U is not one of these monitors.
