SonY 8" PVM 8041Q field monitor
Hello guys.
Got a problem if you plug in to component with this monitor. My camera is the JVC GYHD-100 with the component out to it shouldn't you get a color picture. I either get black n white or just green with the different button combinations. my camera is set to component out i've also tried every combination imaginable with no success. What the heck i'm I doing wrong? i've tried different cables with no avail. I've also tried it on a26" lcd worked perfect so I don't think its my camera. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe a problem with sending HD component video to a SD monitor? Is there a setting on your camera for component format?

Yes there is a setting for that still no luck. Boyd let me ask you this if I wanted to calibrate color
in SD mode would that not work? |
Sorry, that gets a little beyond my area of knowledge, but my understanding is that colorspace is different between SD and HD. Maybe someone else can give a better answer...
|
Also - have you tested the monitor with another source of component video? Most DVD players have component output. That would be one way to determine if the problem is in the monitor/cable.
|
cables ok
Thanks Boyd!
that seems to be working I think im going to try one of those s-video to component cables at least I can get a little more detail. Shawn |
Do you have the camera set to downconvert to SD? The monitor in question won't accept HD signals.
|
donconverting
HOw is that done on the GYHD -100 if it can?
|
I've got a 200 so I'm not sure if it's the same. Check the manual.

I might be missing the boat here. But are you using component out (YUV) or (RGB) or composite out? If you are using a single RCA out connection, I think that would be just composite out and it is probably SD only. I have had several (5) of the Sony PVM 80xx field monitors and one did exactly like yours. It would produce a green picture or a B/W picture only. No color. It was a bad monitor. Actually, all of the Sony PVM 80xx series monitors that I had are all dead.

Greg,
Ive got component out (YUV)on my camera to the component in on the sony. apparently this monitor only accepts SD. Im going to use a s-video to component to get some kind of decent picture from it. |

FTR: (and not for Boyd) Analog Connections - composite (one connector) is SD only - S-Video (4 pin DIN connector) is SD only - ALSO available in 2 connector and generally called Y/C, not S-Video (early Hi-8 cameras sometimes had this) - Component (3 connector) can be HD or SD Digital Video Connections -SDI/HD-SDI (one connector - BNC) can be Sd (SDI) or HD (HD-SDI) -HDMI -DVI (although usually computer based RGB video) |
