This chapter explains the Channel Settings for a just:in mac channel and how to enable a Channel for Recording, once it has been configured.
...
Calendar: select the Calendar which you would like to use with this Channel for Scheduled recordings. You may use any Calendar which can be imported to Apple Calendar app. This can be a local Calendar like the one which was created by the just:in Channel or an iCloud or Gmail Calendar. Contact us for more information.
Preview
You can manually override the resolution, framerate and the quality of the Video Previews within just:control. This may be helpful to increase performance when displaying many Channels in just:control. Please see Channel Preview Options below for more informations.
Resolution: two resolution options are available:
High: 640x360px
Low: 480x270px
Frame rate: the preview frame rate can be changed between 0 (=native framerate) and 30 (if the channel framerate is higher then 30, then the preview will be limited to 30fps).
Quality: can be changed between 10 and 100%.
Channel Settings NDI
...
Video Mode: select the Video mode. The mode has to match the NDI Source. If it does not match, a warning will be shown (No Signal). Beware that here are only video modes available, which are matching the Device Frame rate.
Chunk Length: defines the maximum length of the recorded Video. The maximun Chunk Length is 12 hours, the default option is 2 hours.
If the Recording does not reach the entered Chunk Length, the recorded clips will be automatically truncated to the expected recorded length.
Recording exceeds the entered Chunk Length: a new Recording (generating a new clip) will automatically be started.
Start Timecode: enabling this option overrides the local time or incoming timecode and makes every new clip start with the defined timecode value.
Port: port to access the Channel from just:in over an IP connection. Default port for the first Channel is 50000, 50001 for the second Channel and so on. You can leave this setting if the chosen ports are not in use on this machine.
MXF Write Buffer (Bytes in binary): This setting can be used to tune MXF writing for specific storage requirements, but should only be changed with care as it may lead to unexpected results including write errors. Recommended value: Block size of storage.
Restart On No Signal if Not Recording: If this option is enabled, the channel will automatically restart after a signal loss (only in Idle Mode). Options are:
Close container, write to new: Recording to the current file will be stopped and as soon as there is a valid signal again the recording will start into a new file.
Close container and stop: Recording will be stopped when channel detects a signal loss.
Cache Options:
Don't Cache (default): files are directly written to disk, no caching is done.
Cache: tells the storage controller to cache data in order to flush it to disk later to improve write performance. If you experience low write performance, enable caching.
