DNxHR
When DNxHR is selected, there are three options available: HQX, SQ and LB. To record the
highest quality 12 bit, select HQX. If you need to optimize your storage select LB which will
result in higher compression. When recording HD sources, the recorded file will be in the
corresponding DNxHD format. Select between recording QuickTime or MXF files.
When selecting your codec, it's important to take into account what storage media your are
recording to. For CFast cards, you can record up to 8K using H.265 or up to 4K using ProRes HQ.
When recording to external disks such as a USB-C flash disks, you can record 8K in any codec.
With the optional cache installed, all codec and quality options are available for 8K recording.
NOTE
HyperDeck Extreme will play back H.265 files recorded on a HyperDeck
Extreme, but not H.265 files recorded on other video equipment.

Trigger Record
There are two trigger record modes available, video start/stop and timecode run. Some
cameras, such as the URSA Mini, send a signal over SDI to start and stop recording on external
recorders. Tapping on 'video start/stop' will trigger the HyperDeck Extreme to start or stop
recording when the record button is pressed on the camera.
You can use the time 'timecode run' option to trigger the unit to start recording when it receives
a valid timecode signal via the inputs. When the signal stops, recording will also stop. You can
disable trigger recording by tapping the 'none' option.
