Grainy Output Video?

[Digital Root Films]

At my church we use a DVX100(I think a) and we send that feed to 2 other tv's. The video looks horribly grainy! Would this be a bad cable or what?

Thanks in advance, DRFilms

How long is the cable from the camera to the remote TVs?

The longer the cable, the weaker the signal will get... and if you have two TVs, then you probably have a splitter inline as well... even more signal loss.

What's your setup?

The RCA cable runs to a splitter which sends a feed to a VCR box. From there it is sent out to 2 TVs. This just started happening a couple of weeks ago. I am stumped. I am wondering if the heads could use cleaning?

I hope Im clear enough, DRFilms

What is the gain set at?

Simple, yes, but I have been guilty of overlooking this.

Last time I checked it was set at 0. I found out that it might be a cable problem. I traced it today and have almost cracked the case.

Forgive me for the obvious. Keep us updated on the solution.

I am going to switch out the cable tonight and see if that helps.

Thanks,
