SD SDI card on DL.3

Vincent,

1) Currently you can not feed a PAL signal to the SDI capture on the DL.3. However, with our next software release (which should be out in just a few days) we are adding PAL support to SDI.

2) The SDI signal is a specific digital signal. SDI stands for "Serial Digital Interface". You can not feed a composite signal to an SDI capture card without some kind of convertor.

3) The current resolution on the SDI card is 720x486/29.97fps which is the NTSC standard. Once PAL support has been added 720x576/25fps will also be an option.

Regards,

Matt
Today I spend more time on both DL.3 SDI issue,I take your advice to launch new show,I found that today only unit 1 has that B/W issue,but not always,it's fine at first,but later the image seems to be scanning,and it gradually become B/W,time passes,image ocassionally scanning again and turns to be normal(Unit 1 output,unit 2 input,unit 2 projection is normal;unit 2 output,unit 1 input is B/W).
The same problem happens on S-video as well on Unit 1,and I try to switch to VGA,it's normal,so I guess is it problem for the capture card of Unit 1?
I also try to use my computer to output S-video to Unit 1,but it's same with B/W.

One more thing I wonder,if I set Unit 1 output,Unit 2 input by SDI,it's normal;but later if I unplug the SDI cable from both DL.3,and plug in again,it has no SDI signal output from Unit 1 until I reset both DL.3 the signal comes back.
In S-video I can plug and unplug the S-video cable anytime I want,it's fine.
Does DL.3 not support unpluging SDI cable on power?

You should be able to plug/unplug SDI without issue on DL.3.

What type of cable are you using? If you are not using a proper SDI cable you might be seeing signal problems like this.
