Just a follow up,
We ended up solving this genlock issue by converting the BRCZ330 component to HD-SDI, then back to component via miniconverters.
We weren’t using the switcher to actually switch, but were using it to pass and set a REF signal to a group of non-sync cameras we are using.
Thinking it over, we’re not quite sure why double converting the BRC’s signal works, but I’m figuring that every time we cut to the BRC, its signal would activate (rather than just constantly pushing video through). I don’t know if that is correct, but it seems that having a converter to pass through kept its signal on.
Anyhows, thanks for the suggestions!
cheers
