I am new to this but have been beating my head against the wall trying to figure out GH4 via Mini Recorder. Hoping someone here can save me from wasting days as this is lilkey a simple setting I am someohow missing.

I finally got it to work though, which seemed to require simply unplugging and plugging back in Mini Recorder cable. So now it's working, but when I make a new scene with the same setting it shows a black screen. If I duplicate the scene that new duplicated scene works fine. I assume some setting is different but I l have looked at every option I can think of and they seem the same. I could of course just duplicate scenes and then modify them, but my convern is I will have this same issue again if I start from scratch. All the settings under sources are identical, so why a DUPLICATED Scene works for a GH4 blackmagic device via a mini recordercand it won't work on a created device is lost on me.

When you make a new scene are you copying the source from the old one (paste as reference), or trying to add the GH4 as a new source?

I am trying to add GH4 as new source from scratch. I am not sure why it would mater as I fill out the fields exactly the same?

Probably device exclusivity. For some kinds of devices, once you've connected it and linked it to a source, you can't add the same device a second time. Suggest copying source from scenes and pasting as reference or duplicating and renaming scenes.
