Answers.Text: As far as I know, this has nothing to do with the HDMI specs. Progressive resolutions are definitely part of the hdmi specs. I think the reason why a lot of cheap monitors cannot display certain resolutions is because they use a certain, fairly cheap hdmi display driver by realtek which simply cannot handle progressive resolutions.

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2016-03-31)
  
  Facts as I observe them:
  
  * I can use a mini-HDMI to HDMI cord to mirror my Canon 5D Mark III on my consumer Samsung television
  * I can use a consumer HDMI device such as an Apple TV to power my Lilliput monitor and capture over my BlackMagic Design Shuttle 2 -> UltraStudio Mini Recorder setup
  * I cannot use my Canon 5D Mark III to run HDMI over the Shuttle 2 -> Mini Recorder
  
  The video is set to 1920x1080 with 30fps. I know the BlackMagic devices like `720p59.94` and and `1080p59.94`. I have up-to-date `1.3.3` Canon firmware and have default settings except for `HDMI output + LCD` setting which is set to `Mirroring`. I am set to `P` mode.

The behavior of the camera seems to change when I plug its output into one of the non-working sources, apparently leaving movie mode.

It is a common problem with the BM Pocket Cinema Camera and (some) Lilliput screens since the BMPCC only outputs 24p/25p/30p.
