vup / anuejn: in FW2 are all axiom-* commands now axiom_* commands?
12:28
vup
They should, yes
12:29
se6ast1an
right
12:29
se6ast1an
we should document that :)

is the bitstream still called axiom-fpga-main.bin ?
12:33

axiom_fpga_main.bin I assume

vup / anuejn / Bertl_oO I need your help
13:04
se6ast1an
berto2: installed latest firmware snapshot 74
13:04
se6ast1an
and has trouble with HDMI output
13:05
vup
what does trouble mean?
13:05
se6ast1an
he has a new monitor
13:05
se6ast1an
atomos ninja V
13:05
se6ast1an
which shoul support 1080p60 and p50 without issues
13:05
berto2
yes, just trying this new recorder
13:05
se6ast1an
he is now trying the different hdmi modes in axiom_setup.sh
13:06
se6ast1an
but currently gets an error: error line 6 ./gen-init.sh no such file or directory
13:06
vup
well this doesn't seem like the correct version
13:06
vup
ie looking at: https://github.com/apertus-open-source-cinema/axiom-firmware/blob/master/software/scripts/axiom_setup.sh
13:06
se6ast1an
also berto2 the lines should all say "axiom_gen_init"
13:06
se6ast1an
not gtn_init.sh
13:07
se6ast1an
thats the easy part
13:08
se6ast1an
I updated the file on github
13:08
se6ast1an
https://github.com/apertus-open-source-cinema/axiom-firmware/blob/master/software/scripts/axiom_setup.sh
13:12
berto2
Yes I did try every mode with this correction
13:12
berto2
blue light no turns on
13:12
berto2
but still no signal on the ninja V
13:14
vup
just to verify, the blue light blinks, right?
13:14
berto2
right
13:14
vup
ok
13:14
vup
and with a normal monitor the hdmi output works?
13:14
berto2
yes, with the shogun mode
13:14
berto2
I had a signal
13:15
vup
hmm
13:21
BAndiT1983
left the channel
13:27
se6ast1an
but not with the other modes and the pc monitor?
13:27
se6ast1an
and no more errors reported now with the different modes?
13:27
BAndiT1983
joined the channel
13:29
berto2
no error
13:32
se6ast1an
does the pc monitor say anything about the mode?
13:33
lexano
joined the channel
13:37
berto2
nope
14:04
berto2
I updated the firmware of the ninja
14:04
berto2
still no signal
14:08
se6ast1an
hard to debug from the distance
14:10
se6ast1an
you can still try the different modes listed in https://github.com/apertus-open-source-cinema/axiom-firmware/blob/master/software/scripts/axiom_gen_init.sh
14:10
se6ast1an
SWIT
14:10
se6ast1an
for example
14:10
se6ast1an
otherwise I would assume the SHOGUN one would have worked
14:10
se6ast1an
as that was tuned with an atomos device
14:15
se6ast1an
but if nothing helps only tuning hysnc/vsync etc. until there is an image would do the trick
14:17
berto2
randomly ?
14:22
se6ast1an
I am afraid so
14:23
se6ast1an
since the ninja does not tell you anything about the signal it receives
14:23
vup
well connecting a laptop with linux to the ninja and getting the modeline / edid would be very interesting
14:30
BAndiT1983
changed nick to: BAndiT1983|away

berto2
like this : xvidtune - show
15:12
berto2
1920x1080 148.5 1920 2008 2052 2200 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync
15:13
vup
yep
15:13
vup
can you get the edid aswell?
15:15
vup
for ubuntu you can install read-edid and that should provide the `get-edid` tool, uploading `filename` somewhere after running `get-edid > filename` would be nice
15:21
berto2
hmm, I think it only show me the EDID of my PC screen
15:28
se6ast1an
can you share a screenshot or paste?
15:28
vup
hmm, the `> filename` part should redirect what is shown on the screen to a file name `filename`
15:30
vup
alternative is, check using xrandr or so which output the ninja is connected to, then run `sudo find /sys -name 'edid'` and copy the one for the output the ninja is connected to somewhere and upload that
15:30
vup
(not copying the file that is listed by the `sudo find ...` command, not just the filename :)

vup
can you put the output of `xrandr` somewhere?
15:49
Bertl_oO
berto3: did the original firmware work on that device?
15:51
berto3
it's my first try
15:51
berto3
xrandr http://pastebin.fr/75329
15:52
vup
berto3: ok, what does `l /sys/devices/*/*/drm/card*/card*-HDMI*/edid` output?
15:56
berto3
http://pastebin.fr/75330
15:56
Bertl_oO
berto3: so you didn't try with the original firmware/SD card?
15:57
vup
berto3: ok can you copy each of these three files somewhere and upload to somewhere (they are binary files, so pastebin won't work well)
15:59
Bertl_oO
you can use 'od' or 'xxd' when installed and then pastebin it :)

or that
16:01

(two of them are probably empty aswell)
16:03

or wow even easier

vup
run xrandr --props

Bertl_oO
looks like whatever is connected cannot do full HD
16:09
Bertl_oO
ah, no that's probably your monitor screen
16:09
berto2
yes it's the pc monitor that is 1280

was it helpful ?
17:14
vup
just came back, taking a look now
17:14
vup
https://edid.tv/edid/791/
17:15
vup
I am busy now, maybe Bertl_oO can assist with configuring a setup, such that it matches one of the timings described in the edid?
17:33
Bertl_oO
never had any luck with that ...
17:34
Bertl_oO
but the timings look pretty standard
17:34
Bertl_oO
berto2: for me the main questions are: did the original firmware/sd work with the device?
17:35
Bertl_oO
does the camera work with a full HD capable PC monitor?
17:40
berto2
I did not try it with the original firmware. And I could not because I cannot connect to th FW1 anymore (micro usb slot has broken, long story)
17:41
berto2
but th camera works with a full HD PC monitor in SHOGUN init mode

berto2: let's hear the story about the micro usb ...
17:47
berto2
we did some camera test before a shooting, connected with usb cable. the camera pan and the slot went off with the cable
17:49
Bertl_oO
I see, so you now do not have console access, I presume?
17:49
berto2
correct
17:50
berto2
I have to stick with FW2
17:50
Bertl_oO
well, you can also use the original FW without console
17:51
Bertl_oO
but it requires a proper setup, which you probably do not have (yet)
18:03
berto2
well, I cannot see how to enter it in the first place, since the only way (to my knowledge) to put the 1 key, would be xith the usb cable (minicom). Or I should open port and let one of you with the key, put my key. complex
