We all know the Blackmagic Micro Converters are so small you can use them anywhere! So imagine the possibilities of having 8 of them side by side in a one rack unit! Well My Custom Shop has done it again and introduces the CTX-BMICRO-1RM! An anodized aluminum 1RU rack panel with cutouts that are spatially correct to match the BNC ports found on the Blackmagic Micro Converters! So whether your converting HDMI to SDI or vice versa, having the CTX-BMICRO-1RM on set or in the studio could be just the fix you need to keep track of your converters and to keep them safe, sound and stable!
I'm trying to get one of them to work with a 30x-SDI Gen2. It works at 1080p30 but not 1080p60. I did read about issues with BMD products and PTZOptics cameras due to the Level A/B difference, but these converters are compatible with both and auto-switch. Any idea why it won't work?
I realize this is a few months old, but I just wanted to say for those who find this question later, the micro converters have no issues with the PTZ cameras at any output setting. We use 4 SDI to HDMI and 4 HDMI to SDI micro converters with 8 PTZ cameras at 1080p59.94 with a BMD TVS HD no problem (the TVS doesn't support true 60fps and also has 4 hdmi inputs and 4 sdi inputs, hence using both kinds of converters). It's far more likely that whatever op is trying to connect the camera to using the converter just doesn't support the high frame rate or is set to receive the wrong frame rate.
