CP-4220 PIB 3G + option card 4k.

Output from OPPO UPD-203 4K / Sony 4k PXWFS5 camera.

Configuration for connecting Oppo UPD-203 4K Ultr-Hd Blu-ray player or Sony 4k PXWFS5 camera to PIB 3G card is via Aja HA5-4k miniconvertor
HDMI cable out from Oppo player and connected to Aja HA5-4K convertor and 4 SDI quadrant output connected to PIB 3G and option card with conection as below
SDI 1 -> PIB 3GSDI-A
SDI 2 -> PIB 3GSDI-B
SDI 3 -> Option card 1-In
SDI 4 -> Option card 2-In
And Selected 3G-Quad as channel Input in TPC.

We have tested alternative 4K content through 4K CAMARA model PXW-FS5 ,both in Live and playback mode, the 4k picture is visible on screen in both modes.

However when we try playback from Kaleidoscope and OPPO UPD-203 4k player the signal does not lock in AJA. The projector plays back in HD. That too when we go the channel setup and select 292A.

Please help me for this issue

Your problem is that the HA5-4K does NOT support HDCP, so the Oppo HDMI output will not work with this device (by definition, SDI outputs are unencrypted). I have a CP-4230 and I too have been searching for a way to feed 4K material from the Oppo UDP-203 to it without success. I am hoping that the Christie series 3 electronics will solve this situation.

Note too, the Christie quad-link 4K option tops out at 30Hz too.
