Ki Pro Ultra Plus File Based Recorder/Player v1.0r3 44 www.aja.com
On playback, Ki Pro Ultra Plus will process the QuickTime container file, process
the CLCP track if present and insert/embed closed captioning data on the main
SDI outputs (BNC or Fiber) VANC. No user configuration is required for caption
playback.
NOTE: Closed captioning is not supported on HDMI inputs/outputs or the SDI monitor
output.
Config Menus
As in the Media menus already presented, pressing the User Control Knob and
scrolling changes the current Config parameter’s value to a new one from the
Ki Pro Ultra Plus’s list of choices—repeating the list if you continue to scroll—or
adjusting a numerical value up or down.
The exact choices displayed will vary depending on the parameter. Most
adjustment choices made with the Control Knob take effect immediately and will
be subsequently stored into the Ki Pro Ultra Plus’s non-volatile memory if they
remain unchanged for 3 seconds.
The Config menu is for system set-up and configuration. Each parameter is
numbered, in the same manner as the Media menus.
Config Menu Parameters
Many of the Config menu parameters are used together to configure the type of
Ki Pro Ultra Plus recording and associated conversion formats used on the input
or output for a particular workflow.
1.1 Record Type
This parameter defines the frame recording method. Record Type can be
configured to record the incoming video signal in a “NORMAL” manner (a
standard format) or “PsF” progressive format.
NORMAL (default)
PsF
Record standard format as input
Record progressive segmented frame
NOTE: A 23.98Hz source is automatically treated as PsF, regardless of this setting. For
29.97 Hz or 25 Hz, “NORMAL” means encode as interlaced and “PsF” means
encode as progressive. This only applies to 1080 formats. The following details
clarify each case:
• 1080PsF 23.98 incoming video > Normal selected > 1080p 23.98 recorded to
disk.
• 1080i 25 incoming video > PsF selected > 1080p 25 recorded to disk.
• 1080i 29.97 incoming video > PsF selected > 1080p 29.97 recorded to disk.
• 1080PsF signal is recorded to disk as progressive; progressive material on disk
may be played back as PsF or progressive on the video outputs; this selection
can be made in parameter 1.3 Progressive Playback.
1.10 Encode Channels
This parameter determines whether a single clip will be recorded (Single Channel
Mode), or multiple clips will be simultaneously recorded (Multi Channel Mode).
Single Channel (default)
Multi Channel
Record one clip. 4K UltraHD is supported.
Record up to four clips. 4K UltraHD is not supported.
