I think your Sony A7 is sending 1080P output on the HDMI. While the Shuttle only accept up to 1080i. ;)

So lower the output resolution.

Check the Shuttle with a HDMI output of a laptop set to 1280x720P

Like I said, I checked all the possibilities, one by one. I took GH4 set it to same settings as my a7III and it worked. Does anybody connected Sony fullframe via Instensity Shuttle to laptop?

Again what you have quoted here are Recording formats!

Here watch this video: Around 2:40 he sets the HDMI output settings. Put it 1080i, not P, not Auto!!
