Greetings. I have just received my second BMD camera, a Studio 4K. I already have an URSA Mini 4K EF that I have been using for over a year. I recently starting using it in my green screen TriCaster Mini studio without any issues, connected via the front SDI to TriCaster SDI input 2. The TriCaster input is set to auto-detect. At first, it didn't work until I discovered that a TriCaster project set to 1080p 30 fps is actually 29.97 fps. When I set the URSA Mini framerate to 29.97 fps and the front SDI to 1080p, it worked beautifully.
Not so much with the Studio 4K. The first thing I did right out of the box was to update the software from 2.0 to 4.4. Setting the camera to 1080p 29.97 fps and connecting to TriCaster Mini SDI input 1 does not work. I tried creating a new TriCaster project, making sure that it was 1080p 30 fps. Still nothing. I disconnected the URSA from input 2 and tried it in input 1. That worked, so I know there's nothing wrong with the TriCaster input 1. I tried a different SDI cable. Nothing. So I'm flummoxed. It appears as if there is no SDI output from the Studio 4K camera.
Have I missed any troubleshooting steps?
