hdmi HDMI issue

[Tomasz GFX]

Hi there, 

I just got a DJI video transmission system and want set it up with my GFX 100 II. 

The problem is, that it doesn't work when I connect the HDMI cable to the transmitter. 

The camera display goes on and off about every second and there is no video transmission. 

Has anyone had the same issue? 

I have checked the following:

- the HDMI video resolution is set to FHD 16:9 30fps

- HDMI output settings: output info display is set to OFF

- HDMI output settings: HDMI rec control is set to OFF

- HDMI output settings: RAW output settings set to OFF

- The latest firmware is installed on both the camera and the DJI transmitter 

- Both the camera and transmitter have fully charged battery 

- Video transmission from another camera works [using a different cable, though A <-> B ]

I have tried 2 different HDMI cables and tomorrow I'll test it with another "ultra-fast" one. 

Omitting the transmitter and connecting the camera directly to the DJI High-Bright Remote Monitor works perfectly with both cables I've tried. 

Have you heard about any HDMI problems with Fujifilm cameras? 

Do you have any suggestions?

A short 8K cable didn't help either. 

Apparently there is an HDMI handshake problem between the GFX and the DJI transmitter. Not sure if this is a Fujifilm or DJI issue. 

I eventually connected the two with an SDI converter. Another device that requires power and makes an already chunky rig even bigger and more complicated. I only hope that one of the manufacturers releases soon a firmware update that solves the problem. 

I found more posts on the DJI forum complaining about the same thing with various Fujifilm cameras. 

If anyone has had success without an SDI converter, please comment.
