    I am having a problem with the Decklink Extreme SDI output flickering when it is input into our Sony DSR-1500A VTR. I have tried inputing a reference to the 1500A and going without but it makes little difference. Also, I have changed the reference setting from standard to non-standard but there is no change. The analog outputs look great. Do you have any ideas what is causing the flickering?

    I have solved the problem. I had to adjust the sync timing (H-Phase) on the DSR-1500 and the SDI video input no longer flickers.

    Hi Jeff,

    Thank you for posting both the problem and the solution. That is very useful information for other DSR-1500 users.
