IMPORTANT NOTE: The usage of AJA SDI connectors have changed in Mistika 8.6, in comparisson with 8.5 and early betas of 8.6 version. This was made in order to accomodate 1.5G modes that were missing in previous versions.
The differences are in the SD/HD/2K modes, both for 2D and Stereo3D.
MISTIKA 8.6:
KONA_4 :
For SD/HD and 2k
SDI 1 -> Output (3G or 1.5G)
SDI 2 -> Output (1.5G with RGB Dual Link)
SDI 3 -> Input
SDI 4 -> Input (1.5G with RGB Dual Link)
For SD/HD and 2k Stereo3D Dual:
SDI 1 -> Output (Left eye)
SDI 2 -> Output (Right eye)
SDI 3 -> Input (Left eye)
SDI 4 -> Input (Right eye)
For 4K
SDI 1 -> Output/Input
SDI 2 -> Output/Input
SDI 3 -> Output/Input
SDI 4 -> Output/Input
CORVID_88 :
For SD/HD and 2k
Connector 1 -> Output (3G or 1.5G)
Connector 2 -> Output (1.5G with RGB Dual Link)
Connector 3 -> Input
Connector 4 -> Input (1.5G with RGB Dual Link)
For SD/HD and 2k Stereo3D Dual:
Connector 1 -> Output (Left eye)
Connector 2 -> Output (Right eye)
Connector 3 -> Input (Left eye)
Connector 4 -> Input (Right eye)
For 4K
Connector 1 -> Output
Connector 2 -> Output
Connector 3 -> Output
Connector 4 -> Output
Connector 5 -> Input
Connector 6 -> Input
Connector 7 -> Input
Connector 8 -> Input
For 4K Stereo3D Dual
Connector 1 -> Output/Input (Left eye)
Connector 2 -> Output/Input (Left eye)
Connector 3 -> Output/Input (Left eye)
Connector 4 -> Output/Input (Left eye)
Connector 5 -> Output/Input (Right eye)
Connector 6 -> Output/Input (Right eye)
Connector 7 -> Output/Input (Right eye)
Connector 8 -> Output/Input (Right eye)
For 8K. It is necessary to use Two Corvid88 Boards.
Corvid88-0 > Slot-4 (Controlled by CPU-1)
Corvid88-1 > Slot-5 (Controlled by CPU-1)
Connectors and quadrant related.
Corvid88-0 (Slot-4). Connectors 1 - 4 > Quadrant Upper - Left
Corvid88-0 (Slot-4). Connectors 5 - 8 > Quadrant Upper - Right
Corvid88-1 (Slot-5). Connectors 1 - 4 > Quadrant Lower - Left
Corvid88-1 (Slot-5). Connectors 5 - 8 > Quadrant Lower - Right
As a reference, the Mistika 8.5 connections (now obsolete) were like this:
KONA_4 :
For SD/HD and 2k
SDI 1 -> Output
SDI 2 -> Input
For SD/HD and 2k Stereo3D Dual:
SDI 1 -> Output (Left eye)
SDI 2 -> Input (Left eye)
SDI 3 -> Output (Right eye)
SDI 4 -> Input (Right eye)
For 4K
SDI 1 -> Output/Input
SDI 2 -> Output/Input
SDI 3 -> Output/Input
SDI 4 -> Output/Input
CORVID_88 :
For SD/HD and 2k
Connector 1 -> Output
Connector 2 -> Input
For SD/HD and 2k Stereo3D Dual:
Connector 1 -> Output (Left eye)
Connector 2 -> Input (Left eye)
Connector 3 -> Output (Right eye)
Connector 4 -> Input (Right eye)
For 4K
Connector 1 -> Output
Connector 2 -> Output
Connector 3 -> Output
Connector 4 -> Output
Connector 5 -> Input
Connector 6 -> Input
Connector 7 -> Input
Connector 8 -> Input
For 4K STEREO
Connector 1 -> Output/Input (Left eye)
Connector 2 -> Output/Input (Left eye)
Connector 3 -> Output/Input (Left eye)
Connector 4 -> Output/Input (Left eye)
Connector 5 -> Output/Input (Right eye)
Connector 6 -> Output/Input (Right eye)
Connector 7 -> Output/Input (Right eye)
Connector 8 -> Output/Input (Right eye)
