Recording UHD

From version 1.2, Channel Recorder supports the recording of UHD in 2SI mode as well as HDR. To be able to record in 2SI mode, the board must be of the variant X2 or upgraded with that capability. Please check that the installed board is X2 by accessing the Matrox X.info utility.

These are the steps to be able to record UHD in 2SI with HDR support:

1. If not already done, configure the board into 2SI mode by going to C:\Program Files\Matrox DSX.utils\drivers via cmd and call:

mvConnectorConfig.exe -2SI=on -sn=XXXXXX

where XXXXXX is the serial number of the board

2. If not already done, configure the board connectors to be 4in8out (8in4out is not a supported configuration).

mvConnectorConfig.exe -4in8out -sn=XXXXXX

where XXXXXX is the serial number of the board

3. In the Channel Recorder configuration, set the following values to the parameters:

UHD: true
V210: true
Resolution: 2160p50 or 2160p60M
Container: XAVCMXF
Codec: XAVC
Colorimetry: Any HDR values
