Input
Once your sources are connected, you can select your input via the ‘record’ settings tab.
Thefour options represent each type of connection and it’s as easy as tapping the button to
select the input. For SDI connections from standard definition to quad link 8K, tap on ‘SDI’.
Foranalog devices attached via the component YUV connections, such as a Beta SP deck,
tapon ‘component’.
Codec and Quality
With HyperDeck Extreme, you can record compressed video using H.264, H.265, Apple
ProRes or DNx codecs. For each codec, there are different quality settings you can choose to
record to.
H.265 If you select H.265 as your recording codec, there are three different quality settings
available: high, medium and low. High quality is the perfect choice for when you want the
highest quality with the least amount of compression. Lowprovides a much smaller file size
as the file is morecompressed.
H.264 H.264 can be used when recording 1080p or lower resolutions with SDI, highmediumand
low quality settings available.
ProRes When ProRes is selected, there are three options available: HQ, 422 and LT. Choose HQ for
times when you need to record the highest qualityavailable and therefore larger file sizes.
When you want your recordings to take up less space, you can choose ProRes LT which has
ahigher compression and therefore smaller overall file size.
