ATEM Studio and Camera Converters

PostTue Oct 14, 2014 8:44 pm

Hi,

I would like to use ATEM Studio and camera converters but I have a few questions:
1. Can I use ATEM Studio and Camera Converters on SDI cables or I need to use fibre optic cables?
2. If I use SDI cables, can operators get tally information and intercom works fine?
3. Does tally give me information on camera monitor about preview and online operator (green and red tally border ) or only red colour?

Thank you in advance

You will need to utilize the fiber connections to take advantage of all those features.

What type of fiber are you using, there are both multi-mode fiber, and single mode fiber. Blackmagic only supports single mode fiber.

Also, I'm 99% sure the camera converter only lights up red for program, and doesn't support green for preview.
