Recording
HyperDeck Extreme 8K HDR records video using H.265 and Apple ProRes codecs. The default
codec is Apple ProRes so you can press record straight away and record high quality 10-bit
video. If you want to record 8K video, you will need to change the codec to H.265. This section
of the manual will show you how to do that.
Selecting your Source and Codec
Change the source and codec settings using the intuitive touchscreen display.
To select a source:
1
Tap the 'source' icon to the right of the timecode display at the top of the touchscreen
to open the 'record' menu.
2
From the input options, tap the icon corresponding to the source input your video
signal is connected to, for example HDMI or component.
To select a codec:
1
From the codec options, tap on ProRes or H.265.
2
Different quality settings are available depending on the codec selected and you can
choose one by tapping the desired 'quality' icon. For ProRes, 'HQ' is the highest quality
available. If you have selected H.265, 'high' will record the highest quality.
To return to the main display, tap the menu icon in the top right corner. Your input and codec
selection will appear on the top toolbar of the main display along with the video source
on the LCD.
