Thanks for that Paul.
It'l do me fine.
cheers

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Wow cannot believe that you would get only 1/2 an hour of footage on a 256GB SATA drive. Are there any compressed settings for use with Premiere CS5.5?

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

That is with uncompressed video.
With the new Shuttle 2 and firmware 2.5, there are 2 types of Avid compressed DNxHD one of which works well with Premiere.

ffmbc now supports reading of the op-atom DNxHD MXF files from the Hyperdeck series.

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Hi Guys

I have a Canon XLH1 and a Sony Ex1 (eraly firmware-1.02). The question is can I use this device for my cameras?

Much appreciated

Kent.

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Kent Nguyen
They both have HD-SDI, so yes.

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Dear Zach
for the EX1, The recording format is in MPEG4. For the Hyperdeck can only record uncompressed file which lasts only 12.5 minutes on 120Gbs. I just wonder if the Hyperdeck can do the compressed file as the SxS card?

Best

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

You can use DNxHD codec which is explained here:
DNxHD codec - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
it gives you about 4-5 times more recording time
Your editor must support this format natively, when you start converting (ffmpeg) you'll usually end up 8-bit

Shuttle on F900.

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Hi guys,

I'm considering getting a Hyperdeck 2 for my work (recording in DNxHD), but I'm wondering whether you are actually seeing any significant differences in quality over the standard internal camera codecs? I know there must be some difference, but does it justify the massive hike in file sizes in your eyes?

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

If you are doing green-screen work or serious compositing then it can be truly beneficial. If you are shooting straight video and you are happy with the look of your current footage the improvement will not likely be noticed.

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Paul, How do you like the footage from your hyperdeck on your JVC bypassing the HDV compressor? I've got a JVC HD-110 that I could get a Component/SDI or Component/HDMI converter and use one myself. Would love to keep my camera and move away from HDV for better post work and final results.

Any practical testing have you done with some side by side footage for example?

thanks

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Hi Alex and sorry for the slow reply.
The picture from a JVC GYHM750 was quite noisy even from the HDSDI output.
There was not a great advantage over HDV.

I had the HD-111.
Once you converted 720p analogue to compressed 10bit digital I would imagine it would have a very noisy picture.
It may be better to stick with HDV.

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Hi all,
Paul great post. I have just a few simple newbie questions about the BMD Hyperdesk Shuttle 2.
In my work I was using Adobe Premiere Pro 5 and switched to using Pinnacle Studio for the ipad. Currently My setup consists of the following...
Canon 60D camera
Hyperdrive UDMA2
Ipad3 using the Apps Pinacle Studio, Video Grade, Photofrge2, Artstudio and DispRecorder.
I already have a Sandisk Extreme 480GB SSD. I called BMD and that drive has been tested to work with the Hyperdesk Shuttle 2.
I also have the Sony FX-7 camera.
I wanted to turn this camera into a tapeless recording camera. I need a device that can record in the iPad h.264 MOV file format directly. I read many of the notes here and it looks like all formats are uncompressed file formats for the Hyperdesk Shuttle 2. Is this correct? Is any one of the formats comparable with the ipad?
I would like a device that could record 3-5 hours of video on a single 480GB SSD.
My Canon 60D can record 45 minutes on a 32GB SD memory card. I am using magic lantern version 2.3. I think the video quality is quite good. I have a consumer grade lens for the camera.

Thanks,
John Gerard

Re: Hyperdeck Shuttle
 

Hyperdeck Shuttle 2 latest firmware supports two compressed file formats: DNxHD and Prores HQ, both 10bit 4:2:2. I've used both but latterly mostly Prores on a 128GB SSD and I get around 60 minutes of recording at 1080p 24fps, so your 480GB SSD should do around 4 hours of recording or so.

Hope that helps

Neil
