SmallHD DP4 and HDMI questions.

[Matt Doane]

Using a SmallHD DP4 on our BTR1, and I can't seem to get all the display info on the monitor. All I see is the timecode, shot name/number, and the frame guide. Is it possible to get the battery status up there? Or any other info?

Hey Matt! Make sure you have a high enough speed HDMI cable. 15gbps or more is what it took for me to get my DP6 working. Also see the this thread -

BTW, I tried everything before I figured out that the HDMI cable wasn't fast enough. Check that immediately!

Thanks! I'll check that out right now.

Yep, it was the cable. Thanks again!
