Hi all.
I'm glad its not just me !
I've checked cabling, PFCHAN_SWAPBUFFERS, and the composite
sync setting in ircombine. But still no genlocking,
according to /usr/gfx/gfxinfo -v
However, I have managed to crash two pipes (and recover)
with the following experiment...
Setup a very small additional channel with ircombine, on
pipe zero to output sync on green. Then use that sync on
green as the pipe 1 genlock input.
gfxinfo -v then says that we are genlocked. Pipe zero went
totally screwy when I tried to load a different cmb file - I
had to completely power down the onyx and power up - a reset
and/or reload of any cmb file wasn't enough :-(
Sorry Allan, but this really isn't a SMOC, it's a hideous little
bag of worms that doesn't want to cooperate with any changes,
but is happy to almost but not quite work if you leave it alone.
Urgh, battle fatigue !
Gary.
