Hyperdeck shuttle my views

[Neil Adamson]

Hello

DNxHD 220 which the Hyperdeck shuttle records in is compressed but still at a very high bitrate so while it uses less space than the uncompressed option it is still very space hungry

The request is to allow an additional option (e.g. avchd) which provides lower quality recordings but uses way less disk space.

This would then give the Hyperdecdk shuttle user the best of all options:
Uncompressed – highest quallity – but very high disk utilisation,
DNxHD high quality high disk space and;
AVCHD – good quality lower disk space required

A range of optiopns would offer huge felxibility and expand the uses for the shuttle immeasurably

Prores is the Apple / FCP implemetation of a high quality HD codec – similar to Avids DNxHD.

The problem is DNxHD exhibits a gamma shift in certain Apple programs, such as FCP, so ProRes is still the preferred codec for apple users not editing in AVID.

I see that BM has added ProRes to the Hyperdeck studio as a free software update –

Being an MC user on a PC I dont need Prores for the Hyperdeck shuttle but hopefully this means that additional codecs can be added to either the shuttle or the studio via a firmware update

Holding thumbs for more encoding optiopns on the shuttle

Hello
I am interested in buying Hyperdeck 2, my workflow is working with DNxHD codec but I am in doubt about the SSD I found this on the web

The Following 2.5 “SSDs Have Been Approved for 10-bit uncompressed video capture:

1. OCZ Vertex 3 240GB (VTX3-25SAT3-240G)
2. OCZ Vertex 3 480GB (VTX3-25SAT3-480G)
3. Crucial C300 256GB (CTFDDAC256MAG-1G1)
4. 512GB Crucial M4 (firmware 009) (CT512M4SSD2)
5. Kingston SSDNow V +100 64GB (SVP100S2/64G)
6. Kingston SSDNow V +100 128GB (SVP100S2/128G)
7. Kingston SSDNow V +200 240GB (SVP200S3/240G)
8. Kingston HyperX 240GB (SH100S3/240G)
9. Sandisk Extreme 480GB (SDSSDX-480G-G25)

Note: Many other drives will be Suitable for use, Especially if recording to DNxHD, but support will only be provided for approved SSDs.

The Following 2.5 “SSDs Have Been approved for compressed video capture:

Crucial M4 256GB (with firmware or above 000F) (CT256M4SSD2)
240GB OCZ Agility 3 (AGT3-25SAT3-240G)
Sandisk Extreme 120GB (SDSSDX-120G-G25)

I’m interested in the disc 9. Sandisk Extreme 480GB (SDSSDX-480G-G25) to be able to record with compression that I want is the DNxHD????

many Thanks

HyperDeck Shuttle II now accepts exFAT formatted SSD disc.
I get one hour of Compressed Video using 99GB of space.
It imports directly into CyberLink Director 11 for 64bit Windows.
