Thanks vince for your answer.
For the standard video formats and jobs that’s fine to make a few folders. Mostly I use QuickTime Pro to check the renedered ProRess File and to simply export into H.264 without the need to worry about settings.
As a lot of my work recently is to create webbanners and Sports banners for LED walls, each job has different resolutions. So there I loose time now setting up all these settings while the master-file is made alrrady correct with the right framerates and resolutions. Which is really a pain checking and setting up each file. The reason why I prefer the Adobe Encoder is because they use the Main Concept encoder which is much better than the quicktime pro for converting animated logo’s and texts. As it is more crisp and smaller files to send over internet.

Thanks I’ll try that!

That would be fine, no conversion needed in my case.
I have a smallHD monitor which has many inputs like HDMI, but no HD-SDI.
Currently I use a HD-SDi to HDMI convertor, but it drains my batteries.

First of all it are the best recorders I have ever seen or worked with
It might be by design, but it doesn’t act as any other video recorder would do. It has freaked out both me and my customers. To a point were I needed to find a solution as otherwise one client did not want me to bring my 4 KiPro’s anymore.
If the User doesn\’t stop recording it is very frustrating finding out that footage has been lost due real life conditions during a captation.
A cable can have glitch, a cameraman on stage needs to swap his battery. A steadicam drops a frame on his wireless transmitter. It should just keep recording. We don\’t care if the frames are black or have unreadable image during that event. As long as it keeps recording frames during the event, rather then finding out later it just stopped recoring by itself.
Currently I connect the KiPro\’s which ingest the mobile camera\’s on stage, through AUX connections of my mixer. As the mixer keeps generating steady frames while signals possibly glich.

Thank you for informing us.

[Marc Colemont]

Indeed, the manual does not really explain that possibility.

[Marc Colemont]

Yes it does that. You can record in HD while activating the scaler in the output. It will generate a Composite signal simultaineously lile described above.

I saw the version 2.0 working today at IBC.
The gang recording, new file naming possibilities and the RS-422 are awesome!
They said it will be out in a week or so.

Dear AJA support, please add the Firewire800 support on the back to connect to a computer in a future version. I know everything can’t be done at ones, but now I’m (sure others will too) wearing out the SATA & Firewire connections on the Ki Pro’s harddrives to connect them to my MacBook Pro one by one each time to transfer files.

[Marc Colemont]

Ok thanks… bummer actually.
Does it completely not work, or does it give dropped frames in the software when using it?
Also when you connect non-3G sources like SD or 720P?
Then the bandwidth should be fine. As my MXO2 does transfer 1,45GHz 720P and 1080i sources through the Expresscard34.

Thanks for your help.

Yesterday I used KiPro’s in combination with a real Slo-Mo machine, the EVS XT2.
It would require the KiPro to keep recording while playing back material. And instant search inside the recorded footage. It would be great if the KiPro’s could do that with a software update. I would even pay for that update 😉
