Pb to capture live video with Blackmagic Recorder 3G. Blocked to NTSC

Post by jobee »

Hey folks,
I try to make a good capture of a live video with a Canon Mark3 with a Blackmagic Ultrastudio Recorder 3G to Resolume Avenue.
If I connect the Canon Mark3 to a video-projector I can check that the video stream is 1080. I choosed a PAL Output via HDMI in the Canon MARK3 option.
But when I add this stream as a source in Avenue the flux comes to 720x486 in NTSC. I can't change it.
I spent 6 hours watching all documentation about Canon, Blackmagic, Resolume, I can't figure how to solve it :-(!!!
Could you have any idea?
Best regards

What does Blackmagic desktop video say about the format?

It says this is a 525i59.94 NTSC, REC.601 signal
But when I plug the Canon to a video-projector, the projector project a 1080 video !!!

Is this the Canon 5d mark3?

How about BMD media express, what resolution does it capture?

Yes,
It says in BMD media express that it capture 525i59.94 NTSC, REC.601 signal. And yes this is the Canon 5d mark3.
Whichever settings I tried in Canon, I can't get a good signal. I tried HDMI cadency 24p or 60i or Auto. I can't choose the HDMI output resolution in the Canon menu.

Ok, sounds like the camera is sending that format then.
I'd recommend contacting Canon about this, maybe you need a firmware update to enable full HDMI resolution support.
