Description
Record Rate
Set the global record rate, in fields per second. Each frame is a record of all the horizontal lines
of video and is made up of two fields. The total number of fields that can be recorded each
second by all 16 cameras cannot add up to more than 60 fields per second for NTSC (50 fps
for PAL).
For the HRDV8, the total fps that can be recorded by all 8 cameras cannot add up to more than
30 fps for NTSC (25 fps for PAL). Options are:
0, .1, .2, .5, 1 to 16 (5 is default), 20 to 60 in increments of five.
The lower the record rate, the longer you can record video before your storage disk is full.
Image Quality
Set the global compression setting. The higher the quality, the slower the transmission of
images and the faster your storage disk fills. Options are:
High (10:1 or 15:1)
Medium (20:1 or 25:1) (default)
Low (30:1, 35:1, 40:1)
Very Low (45:1, 50:1)
