Not getting a feed via HDMI

[SeanBrown]

HDMI works for me. You need to turn it to hdmi on the screen then restart the red.

The problem is that it won't work on his monitor.

As others in this thread have reported, that includes some Marshall monitors designed for monitoring video, as well as HDTV's that are designed for DVD and BluRay.

None of the pro level capture cards I own, from Black Magic and Matrox, will work - and I also use a Samsung HDTV for monitoring.

I believe RED is going to add more frame rates (23.98p, 24p, etc), which would solve the problem for me.

If it's important to you that your existing monitors and capture devices work, let RED know, as they have to prioritize their software efforts.

The more people who report that they'd rather spend their money on RED accessories than buying new monitors, the quicker it might get done.

I don´t have a RED monitor or a HD-SDI monitor now and I´m trying to get a picture out of my new Scarlet... I´ve had it for a week and tried a range of different HDMI monitors and TV´s supporting 480/60i, 480/60p, 576/50i, 576/50p, 720/50p, 720/60p, 1080/50i, 1080/60i, 1080/50p, 1080/60p and 1080/24p but there is still nothing :/

Is HDMI supported from the start or do I need a HD-SDI monitor (or a RED monitor)?
Do I need a RED monitor to turn of HD-SDI and turn on HDMI?
My bomb squad said HDMI should work just fine, but after reading so manny posts about this I´m wondering what others have done and if it has been successful? :)

I´m getting a RED 5,6" monitor next week but really, really, really want to see this camera produce some kind of picture so that I´ll know if it works at all (other than showing me a green PWR led and running it´s little fan at full speed) :)

I'm having the exact same problem! I took my camera to connect to an HD-SDI monitor and I couldn't see any menu's so I wasn't able to find the option to switch to HDMI. I vaguely remember reading somewhere in the manual that with firmware 3.0 you can contact your bomb squad rep for a preset file that will allow you to boot up your camera with HDMI enabled. But I can't seem to find where I read it again. I just sent my rep an email so hopefully I will hear back from him soon. He should still be sleeping :)

Please tell me if you get an answer that fixes it (if it needs fixing) :)

Assuming your HDMI monitor can handle what the Scarlet currently outputs (many can't), this should get you up and going:

Yes that works! I contacted support and they sent me a force_preset folder to boot up my camera with.

Can that force_preset folder be shared in some way? :)
