  • Video Mode: select the Video mode.
  • Video/Audio Input: select the Video/Audio input.
  • Audio Bitrate: select the Audio bitrate (native 24-bit for AJA, selectable 16- or 24-bit for Blackmagic).
  • VTR Control: select the serial RS-422 connection you want to use to control your VTR.
  • VTR Preroll in Seconds: set the desired VTR preroll value in seconds (1-10).
  • Chunk Length: Defines defines the maximum length of the Container. The maximun Chunk Length is 12 hours.
    • If the recording When Recording does not reach the entered Chunk Length, the : clips will be automatically truncated to the expected recorded length.
    • If the recording When Recording exceeds the entered Chunk Length, : a new recording Recording (generating a new clip) will automatically be started.When recording in Crash Mode, clips will be added after the maximum record length has been reached.
  • Start Timecode: enabling this option makes every new clip start with the defined timecode value. 
  • Cache Options:
    • Don't Cache (default): usually files  files are directly written to disk in a stream (, no caching , default)is done.

  • Output Buffer Segments (QuickTime only): Number number of buffer segmentsBuffer Segments. The number Number of segments Buffer Segments multiplied by the Video Output Buffer (= storage flush size) is the total buffer size. We recommend not to exceed a total buffer size of 250 frames, otherwise the system may run out of RAM.
  • Action on Timecode break:
    • Ignore: Channel ignores timecode breaks.
    • Create new file: Channel creates a new file upon a timecode break.
  • Engine Port: port to access the Channel from just:in over an IP connection. Default is 50000.
