Reap-IR reticle 1

[CanineKilla]

Anyone know why my Reapir reticle 1 isn't showing up completely in recorded video? It's showing up like this



Thanks

I'm not sure why they're like that but my mk2 and all the other videos I've seen do the same thing.

It has to do with NTSC conversion to your recorder. It is not a one to one.

 

[CanineKilla]

Oh so this is normal then? I've see other videos where the reticle is solid. So it's the DVR issue?

Thanks.

Yes

 

[CanineKilla]

So would a different DVR resolve that issue or will it be the same because it'be using the same compression?

 

[wompa]

No, I believe the rs170 connector is putting out an analog NTSC signal. The digital 640x480 picture is being converted to an analog NTSC video of scan lines which do not correspond exactly to the 480 rows of pixels. Therefore some rows are being ignored.
Someone may have a better explanation of the process, but to my knowledge a different dvr won't matter.

That is why to capture the high quality image the IRD scopes put out people have been recording with a device looking through the ocular.

 

[CanineKilla]

Ok. That makes sense to me. The clarity of the scope is impressive. To bad can't share what is seen through it via DVR

It's a cable issue when made cheaply do not have filters built into it to mitigate the interference. Our cables do not have this issue. Our cable engineer specifically designed and tested these for this purpose as well.

The NGI DVR and custom IRD cables do not have these problems.

 

[Mcallister]

I have the tnvc cable and dvr. It still does it.

 

[SkyPup]

I got it to work on mine?

MC,

It looks like you got it to work sometimes

 

[Mcallister]

All the videos I have taken come out like the one I posted. Sometimes it shows the correct reticle, sometimes it doesn't.

Try adjusting your reticle zero a bit. If rows are being ignored, shifting up or down one row might help.

Thanks sbmarmam, That seemed to work!!
