SDI/HDMI
This setting will set your video assist to start and stop recording when you press the
record start and stop button on your camera. For SDI/HDMI start/stop trigger recording
you will need to use a camera that can trigger the record function via HD-SDI or HDMI.
Cameras which support trigger recording may include menu options such as 'trigger
rec', HD-SDI remote I/F' or 'SDI remote start/stop trigger'.
Source
Displays the connected SDI or HDMI input source. The unit will use the first source connected.
If you have another source connected, your video assist will swap over to the other if the signal
from the original source is lost for a brief period of time. This can be useful for redundancy if you
need to run a back up signal.
Card
Displays the status of the SD card currently selected in the storage settings.
Blackmagic Video Assist 4K has 2 SD card slots. To choose a card to record to:
1 Tap the 'card' status or swipe the touchscreen left or right to open the
'storage' settings.
2 In the storage settings simply tap the 'card 1' or 'card 2' icon near the top left of the
touchscreen.
You can also format your cards in the storage settings by tapping the 'format card'
icon underneath the information for each card.
