Io 4K Plus Capture, Display, Convert v14.0r2 23 www.aja.com
Format Screen
The Format Screen shows the video format currently in use by the Io 4K Plus
framebuffer (called the Primary Format) and allows you to change it. All
throughout the Control Panel, choices are always presented based on what
Io 4K Plus can do with the signals available and the inputs/outputs selected.
IMPORTANT: Do not confuse this Format function screen conversion, which uses AJA
hardware and operates on either Mac or PC, with the separate Conversion
function screen, which uses QuickTime for conversion and is only available on
Mac OS.
Primary (Frame Buffer) Format
Format
This pull-down menu shows the currently selected format. When a change is
made via the Video Format pull-down or by clicking an icon and selecting a new
format via a contextual menu, the block diagram will change to reflect the new
format.
NOTE: The Format control is not active when an application has control of the Io 4K Plus.
Follow Input
Enabling the Follow Input checkbox allows the Control Panel Buffer to auto-
switch to whatever is the detected input format. This feature works if the
controlling application supports input-based capture—Avid Media Composer
or AJA Control Room for example. Follow Input can also be active when there
is no 3rd party controlling application and the Default Output setting is Input
Passthrough (see
"Video Output" on page 21
).
