Is The DJI SDR Transmission system any good?

[@enriquesubias]

Finally someone mentioning camera and gimbal control, thanks!

[@kwangtran4129]

i love cvp keep up the good work

[@johnclay7644]

informative video thanks CVP

[@RawmanFilm]

We have it on Set rn. PRICE is amazing. Video is good, latency is workable. Broadcast mode is nice.

[@TheTechnoPilot]

A fabulously comprehesive review! Thank you for properly addressing latency unlike how many don't!

[@MaximoJoshua]

would love a compare and contrast with hollyland pyro...they both seem to be in the same price bracket, with some similar features, and I am curious which would be the recommendation, or under what circumstances you might choose one over the other.

[@Nujola]

Add the cineview to the fight

[@thenerdshow]

I will never use Hollyland again after our cosmo 600 disasters.

[@Nujola]

Who is going to be the first to put the dji against the pyro and the cineview

[@Codywpreston]

I'm so surprised they didn't add a 2 Pin Lemo for power instead of USB-C in case you don't want to use a NPF..

[@kyleranney]

There's a compnay in the UK that makes a NPF dummy that has 2 pin in and through. Cine Parts

[@TDCIYB77]

For someone who had never used a TX system: Is this latency good enough for focus pulling?

[@9php]

im returning mine because it gets uncomfortably hot, and the fan noise can be very loud even on low mode. Furthermore the battery life isnt great if you're not using massive npf batteries. If you want to power it by usb c, you need to make sure your power supply can output 9.2v!

[@TheStoriesWeTell]

this sucks a lot, makes it much harder to power. I can't use my usb ports on my v mounts, I need to use a dtap to usb c cable...

[@DarkTrapStudio]

Hey CVP just want to share kind feedback : You need to get your audio game right, the audio is harsh.

[@nguyeninhucthang662]

I think he need sth like pop filter to cut air noise

[@DarkTrapStudio]

@@nguyeninhucthang662 Maybe for the sibbilance but it wouldn't change a lot

[@ShortStoryInspiration]

Can you recommend a iPad cage power setup with the dji sdr? Ideally to hand to clients with handles or table stand, almost like a director monitor, thanks

[@NigelBurton-NZ]

Accsoon cages

[@stuartswindellcampoy8483]

Was making a review about them still havent edited it but i did mention the fan, i cant believe nobody mentioned the fan noise the moment i heard mune i was like how has nobody mentuoned this its so loud. Im not surprised though mostnof the people who got it prerelease just said good things, which tbh um happy with mine i dont think the fan noise does affect me yet we'll see if it does at some point

[@VickersDoorter]

1:12 I hate that in the UK we're bound by CE, so the transmission range appears 33% lower vs FCC. I hope a hack appears for this.

[@deviland05]

DJI should develop overlay picture function to matching the shot before I will buy it. Not now.

[@IanSnape]

They have it in the app

i think the Achilles' heel of many transmission systems are npf batteries. You will see that especially when you tried the DJI highbright monitor with npf and their own batteries. Especially cheap npf, take forever to charge and have bad performace. On the High Bright monitor together with the dji handles this can even lead to glitches when the npfs charge is under 40% I really hope DJI would make npf compatible batteries but with the fast charging and awesome weight and power ratio of their own wb37

[@CeenMedia]

Is this good for a simple live sports broadcasting setup to capture wireless cameras?

[@anilanfilmproductions]

Just be cautious with your fingers! My one got uncomfortably hot to the touch after a short while. It wasn’t even transmitting. Just powered on and in the process of setting it up indoors. Fan set to default. Using a touchscreen pen incase I want to change settings on the device itself, rather than on a phone.

[@nickxc]

I'm curious to see if teradek is going to properly respond to all these newer transmission systems. They could ignore hollyland but not dji. My teradeks almost never get used now as 9 times out of 10 im grabbing the dji transmission system.

[@cokebottles6919]

yeah, I've switched to DJI 90% of the time. I can't remember the last time I used a Teradek and didn't have some sort of signal issue. DJI isn't flawless, but other than the occasional restart to get signal back, they've been much more reliable.

[@nickxc]

@@cokebottles6919 yeah I'm incredibly close to selling all of my bolt 500s to potentially get another DJI. It's hard to pull the trigger though because they're such an industry standard.

[@UncommonManFromEarth]

The biggest question I have as a DIT is : what metadatas the DJI transmitters are supporting and for which cameras? (TC, Clipname, Rec Flag...) Do you have any experience with that particular aspect ?

[@cokebottles6919]

​@@UncommonManFromEarth I can only speak for the higher end DJI video transmission, not this new SD version. TC for sure, clipname and record flag are usually fed into the the SDI output via the camera when I've used it... I'm no DIT, but first AC's and the 2-man audio teams I've worked with haven't brought up any issues.

[@nickxc]

@@UncommonManFromEarth I haven't tested it on the highbright monitor, but the standard receiver supports all standard metadata including lens data, timecode, and clip name. The standalone receiver came out later so I wouldn't be surprised if DJI didnt include metadata in the monitor.

[@justusriechers2900]

Great video! Do you know which metadata are transmitted? Just the record flag start / stop or informations like iso, wb, ires etc.?

[@favournjoku3024]

Can you compare the DJI sdr to the Hollyand Mars 4K? Which is better

[@FocalpointproductionsNet]

Great video!!

[@Mall4567]

Couple questions - this device has transmit timecode and SDI start - stop command for external proxy recorders ?

[@-ym4fb]

can i use 2 TX with 1 receiver

[@tonyboz9218]

No UVC output on receiver? Hopefully on next firmware update. Hollyland pyro s/h have this feature and it's great for a quick and dirty output to a laptop at 1080/30 MJPEG for Zoom, Teams , Vmix, OBS, etc .....

[@TommyMacTube]

I have all the gear, camera, monitors, cables....yet nothing is giving me an image...I dont know what im missing

[@NTC_CABLE_VISION]

Hi can it transmit audio video or video only?

[@letamendi]

So the DJI SDR transmitter doesn’t work/communicate with the DJI Focus pro at all? Or it just doesn’t power the unit? Curious because I was planning on getting the Focus pro and using the SDR combo to wirelessly connect to pull focus and use batteries to power the DJI combo.

[@dobaovuongtamdamkt4197]

can I plug an iPhone 16 pro max to the TX and have it send signal? do I need a usb-c to hdmi?

[@staples7762]

Hey Jake, maybe i missed it but can it do sdi loop out?

[@anilanfilmproductions]

Nope, HDMI and SDI in on the transmitter and HDMI and SDI out the receiver. No loops sadly.

[@staples7762]

@@anilanfilmproductions bummer,, but thanks for the answer!

[@mikaelwalker3327]

There are absolutely no competitors in terms of metadata-transmit-capable solutions at this price range, good job DJI.

[@stucooke3983]

If you used an HDMI split to go to the monitor and tx from camera, would that help with latency?

[@Redm0ndFilms]

Would love to see you guys do a video like this for the new Accsoon Cineview 2 SDI. Looks like very solid competitor to this

[@lucasrrosa]

If you were to choose between the Hollyland Pyro S and the DJI SDR, which one would you choose? Clearly it depends a lot on what you are going to use them for, in my case it will be for monitoring.

[@gcl_brb]

I could not power it directly on the RS3.

[@frannyfranman]

No active track is so annoying

[@johnnyweissmuller5838]

I couldnt care less if the range is 200 meters, if i can get a steady signal within 3-5 meters im ok, this isnt the case with cheaper wifi aystems

[@franciscobf]

Finally, someone showing the fan noise. Thank you.

[@kyleranney]

No one else covers the fact that it doesn't work out of the box.

[@ODHunte]

I measured and talked about this before this video on my channel 👌🏿👍🏿..

[@ODHunte]

@@kyleranney well not really, I spoke about this in my video on the transmitter 👍🏿

[@hannamdong]

Stupid plastic without ACTIVE TRACKING function

[@joshpark868]

Also using the low latency mode is achieved by lowering the data rate of the video feed. So low latency mode results in severe artifacts so its not good for focus pulling at all.

[@JerryCook919]

Low Latency mode of DJI SDR Transmission is basically a way to add extra frames to a video without messing with the original frame rate or cutting down on quality. So, if your video is coming in at less than 60 frames per second, like 24, 25, or 50, turning on Low Latency will bump it up to 60 frames to cut down on delay. But if your video is already at 60 frames per second or higher, flipping this feature on or off won't make a difference.
