Mojo SDI --> Sony Monitor --> Beta SP = NO REF!
 

Hi everyone,

I tried to hook Mojo SDI component output to my Sony PVM-14L5 input, and loop through Sony PVM output to my Betacam SP deck and I got an error message saying "No Ref". I know that it has no reference input. What can I do? I don't want to hook straight from Mojo SDI to my Beta Deck because I don't want to have always turn my deck on when I want to preview my sequence on the Monitor. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Tony,

I think you need a black burst generator to feed reference to your Betacam SP deck. I assume that you have a UVW series. Horita make one for around $400. You would feed black burst out from the generator into ref in to the deck and that should take care of your problem.

Which model are you recommending?
 

Hi David,

Thank you for your reply! I checked on B&H and there are tons of Horita BBGEN. What should I look for in one? What makes one better than the other? Please advise. Thanks!
