Application restart on settings change
Input resolution
Some settings changes require a restart of
the application.
In the input settings page, application restart
is required for:
1) switching between compressed and un-
compressed modes.
2) changes to the audio input
When time code is set to “Ambient”, all set-
tings require restart to re-sync the time code.
If an application restart is necessary to ini-
tialize the new setting, a dialog will appear
to inform the user.
For HD settings, ensure your camera is set to
16x9 output.
Valid input resolutions are:
1080i (1920x1080 interlaced)
1080p (1920x1080 progressive)
1080psf (1920x1080 progressive segmented)
720p (1280x720, progressive)
PAL (720x576 interlaced)
NTSC (720x 480 interlaced)
