    Lightbridge bug?

    I have also seen footage on some news services that came straight of the I2 HDMI port, but that's news. They do get their footage from odd sources and deal with it. We cover live sporting events that go to major networks and pay per view. If I saw "that" standard on ppv I would be less then...

    HDMI output

    Thanks man, I saw this on your post. Still had no bites from the DJI team which tells me they have no solution in sight. Looks like my Inspire2 will go into surgery to see if we can fit a real Downlink to this machine. Either that or DJI must team up with someone like Paralinx or Amimon....

    Lightbridge bug?

    IMHO DJI has misled the consumer by stating it was a broadcast ready device. I believe they were talking about social media broadcast like YouTube, Facebook etc. Not live to air TV broadcasts HD or otherwise. This would be seen as a dirty marketing trick, but being as large as they are now, they...

    Lightbridge bug?

    We have done some extensive testing with recording simultaneously on the bird and of the hdmi port. He results are chalk and cheese. There is nothing wrong with the recording on the bird, the hdmi output is less then average and unusable for live broadcasting.

    HDMI output

    It's a very clever marketing tool. Yes it is a broadcast ready bird if your platform is social media. It seems the word "broadcast" is now used in a far broader form then what we were use to. It will be necessary to start reading the fine print on the labels. They throw numbers like 4K and...

    HDMI output

    That is exactly my question. Is there a way to get a video feed directly of the I2. We have not found a way as yet, but have not opened the bird to dissect it's internals.....yet. We had to go to a larger frame with external link to be successful, but really would like to go back to the small...

    Direct HDMI/SDI camera output

    Thank you all for your input. As we are based in Australia it's a little harder to try options with different antenna arrays. It's the actual vision that is pushed (compressed) into the link of the I2 that makes it unwatchable. Better antennas will not change that compression. We are currently...

    HDMI output

    The almost 1 second latency is something to get use to, but as we do mostly external shots live to air, it doesn't matter at the moment. It's when we start doing play action shot where it will get tricky. Paralinx and Teradek both stack up well, better in the latency department, but longer...

    Right now the Connex is not up to scratch with the high end Amimon products. We are currently using the microlite HD which is a very expensive, but reliable system. The Connex is just OK for monitoring, but not good enough for broadcast.

    Direct HDMI/SDI camera output

    Hi all, I'm looking for a way to get a direct HD feed out of the Inspire 2 via hardwire. Be it HDMI or SDI. Does anyone know if this is achievable? I don't care about voiding warranty, because the way it is, the downlink is absolutely useless for live broadcasting and the "Tracktenna" system...

    Inspire 2 Lightbridge

    Thanks, it is a little confusing when they wrote "Enhanced version of Lightbridge" in the manual. I'm just trying figure out why the downlink video is so bad.

    Inspire 2 Lightbridge

    Can anyone give me a difinitife answer whether the Inspire 2 is using Lightbridge or Lightbridge 2 ??

    Tracktenna Compatability

    I've just read the spec for the I2 (duh) and read that it's an enhanced version of Lightbridge. So am I correct in saying that it's not even LB2?

    HDMI output

    You would be right, but the Cendence not being released yet and no word on release date on the tracktenna at all, it will not help our broadcasts we have going on at the moment. Our only option is to go back to the larger bird with the Connex or Paralinx system which is what we were trying to...

    HDMI output

    So broadcast mode has slightly improved my dropped frames, but it seems to be heavily pixilated especially when camera is in motion. If there is a fix for this please let me know. The dark horizontal bar dropping top to bottom on the screen is still there though. It's not to bad on the lighter...
