Genlock, Clock Gen and their friends are at the top of the "check all of the responsible hardware, the ports, and the cables" list when someone is having a flaky problem that doesn't make sense to anybody. Shortly followed by 44.1 vs 48khz and 59.94 vs 60fps being wrong somewhere
Everyone I have worked with in the space is like, people throw "OG" around a lot, but these dudes are lifers. They don't make mistakes like that. It made me wish I was cooler with the theater kids in high school, I had no idea.

Not to forget someone using a 50ohm CB cable instead of a 75ohm cable. Or someone forgetting a terminator or having the signal double terminated.
