    I'm wondering if anyone has successfully used Blackmagic Design's new Battery SDI-HDMI converter to get HDMI output from their RED One. I have one and haven't been able to make it work. I will get a brief picture occasionally, and then it goes to gray. I've tried feeding it SDI from the camera using both the MiniDIN-BNC cable and an ET Breakout box. I've verified that the Video out is set to 720p and tried all 3 SDI ports and switched out SDI cables. Fortunately, the HDMI output on the camera worked with the Panasonic TV we were using for video village and we had a 50' HDMI cable to feed it, but it is not the setup I'd prefer to use. Anyone have any suggestions?
