2. Pegasus Features and Benefits
2.1. HQ Recorder – Pegasus Capture Software
HQ Recorder is a capture application designed specifically for Pegasus and is included in the Pegasus package.
HQ Recorder provides a quick and easy method of configuring HQ capture quality settings, and HD and SD video
preview of input sources, including a fullscreen mode. HQ Recorder supports three modes of capture:
Auto Capture
–
HQ Recorder will automatically start capture upon detecting an input signal matching
your configured settings
Manual Capture
–
Captures can be started and ended manually, or started manually and ended
automatically by specifying the duration or end time
Scheduled Capture
–
HQ Recorder captures according to specified date/time
The HQ Recorder application resides within the Windows notification tray, providing you with an unobtrusive
means of starting and ending video capture. This is ideal for situations where you need to capture graphics output
from the same PC that the Pegasus hardware is installed in.
Note:
Both HQ Recorder and EDIUS v4.5 software applications share the same video overlay engine, and as such,
cannot be run simultaneously.
