Tascam 701-D HDMI Start Stop Trigger With Canon 5d Mark 4

Hello everyone.

If I am using my Sony PXW-Z150, and Have the Camera HDMI To the Tascam HDMI IN, and From Tascam HDMI OUT to any Monitor, I can easily press Start Record and Stop Record from my Camcorder, and Therefore, Tascam Recorder Starts, and Stops Recording at the same time. This is a very good feature for syncing.
But, when I use my Canon 5d Mark 4, It does not work. I have contacted Tascam, and they told me that Canon 5d Mark 4 Is compatible, and it should work.
Any help Please
Thank you very much.

I am not familar with Canon DSLRs, but if they are like the Sony Mirrorless cameras and camcorders like your Z150, then you should look in the menus for the section that allows you to configure the HDMI output of the camera.

In that area of menu settings, there should be a setting for "HDMI Record Control" or similar, which you will want toggled on.

Dear Meg The Dog.

Control Over HDMI is Enable.

HDMI Display Is on Default Icon.

Are you sending timecode on the HDMI out?
