SI-2K Recorder: Known Issues & Limitations
-
SIV Playback on slow drives can hang: Use higher speed drives, Raid or SSD
-
High Speed CineForm modes (72/85/150P) will only do burst record on SI2K before RAM
overflow. For continuous high-speed shooting you can use PC/Laptop.
-
QuickTime .MOV requires more CPU overhead than AVI and will RAM buffer overflow at the
highest quality settings. Use Adaptive encoding or .AVI format.
- Touchscreen calibration settings are not preserved if the write-filter is enabled. The work-
around is to disable the FBWF write filter before performing calibration process. Then re-enable
FBFW and reboot to maintain protection of the system OS. The shortcut for disabling and
enabling the FWBF write-filter is inside the “/SI” directory on the SI-2K desktop.
