Edirol v4 + eyesy

Each time you want to change the composite output format you need to do the terminal commands. So the procedure is:

  1. Power on EYESY
  2. Enter terminal commands from this post.
  3. Change your composite video format using the On-Screen Menu. Be sure to press ‘Enter’ (floppy disk icon) on your choice and then choose ‘Exit’.
  4. Power down the EYESY
  5. Power EYESY back on.
  6. Check your composite video format using the On-Screen Menu - it should be updated to the format chosen in step #3.
  7. If you want to change the format again (which will be applied the next time the EYESY boots up), you can start the process again from step #2.

Apologies that this process is laborious. We will update it soon to work as intended.


No, unfortunately we don’t have the Edirol v4 to try it out. If the Edirol’s ‘preview’ is showing the correct image, but the main video output is not, it seems like an issue with the Edirol - the EYESY isn’t changing anything in its video output when the Edirol’s settings are changed.

Hopefully one of the other PAL formats will work with the Edirol V4. If not, there is the option to use an HDMI to PAL converter like this user:
