Specifying your settings for Matrox ISO recording
Record status
The Matrox ISO Record dialog box includes a record status indicator. If the
indicator remains green throughout the entire recording session, all recordings
completed without any dropped or skipped frames. If dropped or skipped frames
occur during a recording, the indicator turns red for the duration of the recording.
Check the Record.Log file to see the dropped/skipped events for your recording
session (see “Record log file” on page 226).
Input states and video formats
The video format that you selected in the Source Settings dialog box for your
Matrox device is displayed in the
Matrox ISO Record dialog box.
The following input states are displayed:
• Valid input signal When a signal that matches the video format selected
for your Matrox device is connected to the input, such as 1080i @ 29.97 fps,
the video format is displayed under the input label. If the input is selected for
recording, the resulting video file will be in the displayed video format.
¦NoteFor .mp4 files, the created file will always be in a progressive video
format. For example, 1080i @ 29.97 fps source video will be recorded to an
.mp4 file as 1080p @ 29.97 fps, and NTSC source video will be recorded as
480p @ 29.97 fps.
