NX1 HDMI Out tinted green/yellow

Hey everyone,

With all the distance that has been created by the coronavirus situation, I'm on webcalls a lot more than I used to be. As such, I've been looking at devices to help get better quality in these situations.

I've found and bought a El Gato HD60S+ Capture device that I'm trying to use with my Samsung NX1. The HD60s+ is 4k capable and just features an HDMI in, HDMI out and a USB Out.

I'm hooking the NX1 up to the hdmi in and then taking the USB out to my computer which essentially just seen the HD60S+ as a webcam and allows me to use it in zoom, skype or any other application such as OBS.

When I do this however, the image turns yellow/green in computer. It's fine on the back of my nx1 and in recorded footage, but the output image has entirely tinted.

I've tried this with several different cables, and each of my 2 nx1 bodies (1 with firmware 1.40, 1 with 1.41) as well as my nx500, all with the same result.

I've hooked up my panasonic lumix g7 into the same set up and it works fine without the green tinted image.

Now I know I've hooked my nx1 up to monitors and thigns before through hdmi and did not have this issue, but after this experience i went and hooked it up to a small hd dp4 monitor that I have and have the same issue!? It's very weird and frustrating, becuase while the image is unusable in it's current form, it looks great!!! nx1 with 16-50 S lens is as good a webcam as you'd expect.... If I can get around this problem.

Anyone run into anything similar? Anyone using NX1s hdmi out right now?

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 Samsung NX1 Samsung NX500
