On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

I want to see the on-screen display on the Ninja2 monitor but it records onto the output file. What am I doing wrong? The only way that I seem to be able to prevent this is to not have the display visible on the Ninja2 monitor.

I just started using Ninja2 with my c100.

Re: On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

Think about what you're asking, you can either use the output for monitoring, or recording. what comes out of the hdmi is what gets recorded, hence the big deal about "clean" hdmi output. if you couldn't turn off the on screen info, then you wouldn't have a reason to have the ninja in the first place

Re: On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

That does not help me. So I can't view screen information (like ISO information) if I am recording the output?

Re: On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

Right now all that information, like ISO, f-stop, etc is going onto the output file.

Re: On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

there's nothing else to explain, you want something that's not possible. think about it as i already explained and you'll see that it's not a physical possibility. what comes out of the hdmi, gets recorded. no external recorder can remove on screen info.

Re: On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

Yep! Turn off display information through the HDMI when using a recorder. Best option here is to look at the display information on the C100 LCD and let the Ninja display be clean. Just kinda the way it works with external recorders. Some cameras have multiple outputs you can set independently to show or hide the information, letting one output go to monitor and another clean output going to recorder, but this means lots of $$$!

Re: On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

Page 114 of the manual:

http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/9/030000...c100-im-en.pdf

You have a choice between on-screen info on:

* the EVF

OR

* the external output (ie HDMI in your case.)

So you can get all of your usual info on the C100's LCD screen and the EVF, while having a clean output to the Ninja.

Ben.

Didn't Stefan say something about HDMI Mirroring on in his video?

Re: On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

Does the peaking on the Ninja also show up on the recorded track? My Ninja is broken (HDD stuck in the unit) so I can't test it.

Re: On screen display recorded when using Ninja2 with c100

Strange that this isn't enabled out of the box. It was for me. I've been shooting on the C100 and Ninja and I can display histogram, peaking and zebras on the Ninja (which is amazing BTW) and none of this info is embedded to the video. That was set default.
