We are using a Mini Pro ISO to produce a weekly multi-camera shoot out in the garden at the Urban Farming Institute. We usually use two Canon M50s and a mix of other DSLRs and camcorders. Last week we shot with just the two Canons but used new 25' HDMI cables for the first time with them. The cameras did not appear to work so my crew punted back to using other cables from my kit to do the event.
Today I tested the cables individually with the ATEM and an M50 and got weird results. They always worked correctly when plugged into Camera 1 and usually when plugged into Camera 4. They never worked on Camera 2 and were intermittent on Camera 3. All three of the new cables (CableMatters.com, from Amazon) showed this same behavior, and my other 25' cable (Cable Creations) worked correctly on all four ports.
I'm thinking that there is something about the cable that is the problem but need to finish ruling out a problem with the ATEM. I'm curious if anyone has any insights to this problem. Thanks in advance.
