I've got the latest firmware installed, but intermittently the Samurai unit will go black screen and need to be power cycled when pushing the Play icon after recording a few clips. No clips are lost, but it makes checking laborious and nerve-wracking.

I thought this was something addressed and fixed a couple of firmware versions ago?

Any ideas?

Not up to date with the history with these/firmware etc. but just a suggestion. Does it do this with an alternate, i.e. different HDD?

worth testing. I've been using an Intel SSD that's Atomos recommended. I'll give it a test with a spinning HD and a different SSD to see if it is isolated to just one drive, still it was supposed to be fixed ages ago. . .

Hi Bruce,

Which firmware version are you currently using?

Kind regards,

I've installed the new 4.0 update and the recorder seems to be working properly now. I'll update if that changes.
