Hello,
I work for a school and run the news team program. Last year we used the SD out for a check monitor in our news room. It worked fine all last year. Fast forward to a week ago when we fired the unit up for the first time after summer break now I get nothing on my SD output. I've tried the following, swapping cables to a known good one, adjusting the AUX out (iirc AUX 3 controls the SD out signal), and I rolled the software back from the current version to version 3.4. None of these have provided me with a fix. The unit was unplugged all summer and never moved. I've searched the forum and atemuser.org, and have found a few threads but none of the suggestions were of any help. The only thing I've noticed is when I hook up a short (under 6 feet) cable from the SD out to a projector I get a black screen, like its trying to pass signal.
I am out of warranty now and sending it back right now is not an option (the SD out is not a requirement, but it sure was handy). I just don't understand what would cause it to fail if it hadn't been touched all summer. I'm really starting to lose faith in the BMD product line.
So, if anyone has any suggestions I'd really appreciate it.
