Recording Notes
• Ki Pro may take a few seconds to close longer files (files over 20 minutes). For
these longer recordings, you may see a "Closing File" prompt on the display.
• Ki Pro alerts you when the media is nearly full with a "Media Low" prompt at 15%
of the remaining capacity. At 10% of the total capacity of the media, the "Media
Full" prompt will appear. Any recordings that have been started will stop once
10% is reached and no further recordings can be performed using this media
until it is formatted again or a MEDIA>Delete Clips>DELETE ALL has been
performed. Deleting clips to produce more than 10% free space will allow
recording to resume.
• To change Apple ProRes 422 settings prior to recording: press MEDIA, and then
repeatedly press SELECT until you see 14.1 Encode Type. Next, press ADJUST up
or down to select "ProRes 422LT", "ProRes 422PX", "ProRes 422HQ" or "ProRes
422". Press MEDIA or STOP to exit the menu. To change to Avid DNxHD, select
14.0 Encode Mode in the MEDIA menu; use the ADJUST up button to select
"DNxHD", and then ADJUST up again, and hold ADJUST up for two seconds to
reboot for DNxHD. Once the Ki Pro system is rebooted, navigate to 14.1 Encode
