Sony PMW EX-3 Sync question
Hi There,
I need to solve a synchronization problem, which is to sync a Sony PMW-EX3 with a signal sent by a nvidia gtx 295 graphics card. The graphics card has a DVI and HDMI output, so, I want to extract sync information (genlock) from that. I dont know if there is a device such as a DVI - tri level sync genlock. So, call you tell if such device exists, and where can I find it ? If there is another way to solve this issue, please let me know. |

If you can get a analog composite video signal out of your computer, that can be plugged into the EX3 genlock in, to genlock the EX3 to that signal.
So you would need a DVI to NTSC or PAL converter. I think there are quite a few of varying quality out there. Someone here may have a recommendation. |

Ok, this can be a dumb question.
Can I use a SDI signal as a sync signal ? I mean, I could convert the DVI PC output to SDI, and then plug the SDI cable to the EX3 Genlock in. Do you think this is going to work ? |

No, don't do that. It is a totally different signal.
