2 Recently, in most, but not all, of my flights I get black lines in the video.
I am flying a Meteor75 lite with 200mW video power. This is the older AIO board that had both 25mW and 200mW option. I did not have these lines previously and only recently started getting it. Searching the net, the most likely cause is power to camera or VTX. How can I check or verify this? What else could be the cause of these black lines?

388 Black lines are usually caused by power issue. Being that this is an AIO FC, I can't see that you can do much about it.

2 14-Mar-2021, 01:17 AM Quick update. The issue is now resolved. It was a power issue as everyone pointed out. The main cause was the power line between the camera and the AIO board. It was held together by a few strands. I resoldered the wire. I did not need to add the capacitor. The video doesn’t have black lines anymore.
I am glad I opened it to put the capacitor instead of attaching it externally to the power cable.
Thank you everyone.
