Hello, we have 4 BMSC 6K Pro cameras connected to an Extreme ISO SDI. All cameras are updated to firmware 8.2 and the switcher is also updated to the latest firmware. We connect the four cameras with dual SDI for input and output. But randomly, some of the cameras, when we press the PGM button, all we see is their own camera signal without the OSD. Switching the output to bars also doesn't work. We have tried changing cables, changing input and output ports, avoiding specific inputs on the switcher... Nothing works. Some cameras freeze when the program button is pressed, and camera control and tally also stop working when this happens. Occasionally, turning off and on the switcher fixes this issue. In other instances, turning off and on the camera also fixes it, and sometimes just removing and reinserting the SDI cables makes the camera work perfectly again. But sometimes none of this works and we have to do it multiple times. There is no consistent pattern of behavior that always resolves it. We are already desperate because we have tried everything. Connecting it to a single output, using an SDI switch, connecting it only to the switcher outputs, resetting the cameras to factory settings, resetting the ATEM to factory settings. None of this works. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a solution?
