Marshall V-LCD70XP-3GSDI monitor not recognizing SDI signal from Red MX camera

12 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.

What the thread found

  • A Marshall V-LCD70XP-3GSDI monitor failed to detect SDI signals directly from a Red MX camera across multiple SDI ports, but the signal passed through successfully when routed via a Switronix Recon Ultra before reaching the monitor.
  • The same SDI signal worked when connected directly to another monitor, suggesting the issue was specific to the Marshall display rather than the camera output.
  • The Red camera outputs a progressive signal format rather than PSF, which may be relevant to signal recognition issues.
  • Ground issues on video connections can cause signal recognition failures.

Depends on

  • The reported issue was from 2014 and specific to one camera and monitor combination.
  • No resolution was documented in the discussion.
  • The cause remained unconfirmed, with only hypotheses offered.
