Just to rule out potential issues with cables and the YAGH itself, is anyone successfully getting either a record trigger or timecode from a GH4 via the YAGH interface? I get record trigger from the mini HDMI directly but not through the YAGH. The GH4 shows timecode from my mixer but not on the Pix-E5. (2.4 and 1.1 firmware, HDMI record out, etc. ) Video Devices says they have not tested the Pix-E5 with the YAGH. They don't understand why the signal protocol would change from the mini interface to the YAGH and I don't either. The Pix-E5 sees the 4k 10 bit picture just fine.
GH4 Anyone using YAGH with Pix-E5?

Is there a need for the YAGH when you get full use of the PIX-E5 with the GH4? It seems like a needless complication in this instance.
I haven't tested the YAGH with it, but can confirm that the PIX-E5 works perfectly with the GH4 through direct connection.

Couldn't you mount the YAGH and leave the HDMI disconnected (connecting it to your PIX-e5)?
My solution: Configure timecode on mixer as rec run, send timecode from mixer to Pix-E5 LTC In, configure Pix to use TC from the LTC port and to record on TC start, add a delay on the LTC signal to account for the latency between the mix audio (and video) and the mixer tracks. Great support from Video Devices folks in sorting this out.
