  • Strange picture patterning on Mojo output

    Posted by Garry Grant on October 9, 2005 at 5:48 pm

    I saw a post about this on another forum so I know my problem exists on other systems.

    Mojo I use is rev. D no problems on DV firewire capture. I am importing Digibeta footage and want to go uncompressed thru Mojo but I get a strange herring bone pattern of lines that moves diagonally across the crt monitor screen.

    I have added ref signal, taken away ref, detached other cables, changed cables….no effect. I do not get this with firewire input footage.

    It is like some kind of interference. I heard that rev. D and earlier had power supply problems… should I ask dealer for a replacement Mojo?

    I want to use uncompressed as it will retain more quality than digitising DV quality…

    thanks

    I am answering my own question here…

    I just changed Mojo to an older C2 version and the patterning has gone…

    this seems to prove that you have to be careful with the mojo version you purchase…even tho my dealer said there were no issues with early mojos.

    So I wonder if I can send it back for replacement or will they try to hit me with a charge??

    I am getting a mojo for my avid, but what are you referring to whan you say C2 and rev.D. I have never heard of these.
    thanks

    you look for a white sticker on the inside edge where the video connectors are and youwill see a version number…
