    Just tried connecting the SDI Mojo using s-video output. Put the green BNC to green, red to red on the supplied BNC-s-video connector – but I only get a black and white image – as if the chroma (red) lead isn’t connected. And indeed, disconnecting it has no effect. The same leads work fine using component output, and I’ve swapped around the BNC-s-vid connector in case it was faulty. I’ve selected S-video in the video output tool, though I imagine all outputs are active anyway… any ideas?

    You need to set the video output tool in your software, it switches between component, S-video and composite.

    Thanks – I tried that, as I mentioned. Doesn’t make any difference what video output setting I choose.

    Whereto are you connecting this S-video output? Does the device in question need to be set to accept S-video? Could it be an NTSC/PAL issue?

    Thanks for your help – all sorted now. Turned out to be a monitoring issue. The signal was getting through ok.
