How to configure the mic jack on JVC 170U

Here's an answer a viewer question about using the auxiliary port on the JVC HM170U. This should also work for the HM200 and the GY-LS300 since the menu system and layout of the cameras is pretty much identical. The auxiliary port is the mic jack at the back of the camera where you can plug in a 3.5mm or 1/4 inch mic.

Thanks for the great service you provide for the world. I have a question. How can I make my JVC 4K Cam compatible with my MAC desktop using "Ultra Studio Black magic mini recorder?" Do I need a specific setting for the JVC? The Black Magic doesn't recognize my JVC 4K Cam. Thanks.

HI I have the JVC GY-HM250U 4K Cam Handheld Camcorder. I don't know how to set it up. Do you have a video to teach me the basic set-up? When I open the screen motor it does not show any

How do you change/bring more volume out of the camera for recording purposes?

Is this an actual 170u you’re using for this tutorial? If so, how did you get the lens hood off? I’ve tried taking mine off so I can use a teleprompter and either mine is stuck, built on, or I’m just doing something wrong to get it off.

Can you link ch1 and ch2 together (xlr)? I just don't want to duplicate the channel to the other side in post.
