4K Play / Record
IMPORTANT NOTE: This new 4K feature is applicable only to 8-Channel Mira servers with JPEG-2000 native recording. This new 4K feature
is not applicable to 4-Channel Mira servers; and not to Mira servers with DVCPro native recording.
This 4K feature allows the eight video channels in any 8-Channel Mira server to be configured as a
“one-channel” 4K recorder/player.
When configured for 4K operation, the Mira server can record a single real-time 4K video stream via four “base-band” 3Gb/s serial
digital input video cables. Likewise, during 4K playout, the single real- time 4K video clip content is replayed via four “base-band”
3Gb/s serial digital output video cables.
The media file Import tool can also be used to import 4K media files, using any video codec supported by the media file importer.
In addition, during 4K operation the “ABCD” Quad Viewer provides a down-scaled HD-SDI 1080i representation of the 4K recording and
playback video. Via the Mira Config utility, on the Quad Viewer tab, the user may turn OFF the overlay text and audio meters, to show a
“clean” down-scaled HD video representation of the 4K video output on this ABCD Quad Viewer feed.
