Metadata Menu
The
Metadata
menu handles the metadata that is recorded onto SD card.
Record Mode
Set
Record Mode
to
Auto
if you want metadata to be recorded to SD card
each time the UMC-4 gets a tally (recording) feedback from the camera it is
connected to.
Set to
Manual
if you want to start metadata recording to SD card manually.
Manual metadata recording can be activated by a USER button. Press the
USER button to enter the
User
screen and assign
Record Metadata
to one
of the USER buttons (see the USER menu section). Start manual recording
by pressing the assigned USER button.
We recommend using high quality SD cards with the
UMC-4. We also recommend formatting each card before use,
as this will avoid issues with excessive fragmentation on the
card’s file system.
