Set the dynamic range of your fold out monitor and
touchscreen displays using the 'display' settings. This feature
lets you view your recording in 'video' dynamic range, even if
your 'recording' settings are set to 'film' dynamic range. You
can choose what overlays to display on each monitor and
SDI output by tapping on the arrow icons for each setting.
SDI overlays can always be viewed on the fold out monitor by
pressing the fold out monitor's 'disp' button. Press more than
once to cycle through them.

File Naming Convention

Clips are recorded to your CFast cards in the CinemaDNG RAW format or to a ProRes QuickTime
movie, depending upon which recording format you have chosen. Blackmagic URSA uses the following
file naming convention when recording video.
[Camera ID]_[Reel Number]_[yyyy-mm--dd]_[hhmm]_C[Clip number].mov
The table below shows an example of the file naming convention:
BMC01_1_2014-08-08_1631_C0002.mov
BMC01_1_2014-08-08_1631_C0002.mov
BMC01_1_2014-08-08_1631_C0002.mov
BMC01_1_2014-08-08_1631_C0002.mov
BMC01_1_2014-08-08_1631_C0002.mov
BMC01_1_2014-08-08_1631_C0002.mov
For CinemaDNG files, the folder of the image sequence will also be named the same way.
