Are there any important things to be aware of when setting up a RAID
for Video capture?

Many SCSI and Fiber raids that use SATA or IDE with a backplane and controller often offer
user settings for configurations. Be sure to format the Physical disk in a 512 Block size and
never exceed a single volume size of 2TB. Multiple 2TB (or below) can be striped together by
the OS for larger capacity storage.

I captured a QuickTime file and then renamed it when the system
prompted me to save it—why did it take so long to save?

When KONA is capturing, it creates separate audio & video files based on the name the clip
is logged with and then multiplexes the audio & video together at the end of the capture. If
the user renames this clip after the capture, a duplicate clip has to be regenerated and re-
multiplexed.

I have KONA software version 2.5 or later installed, and now my desk-
top display is very blocky—why is this?

In version 2.5 we added support for OpenGL Texture desktop display. For OpenGL Texture
support, an NVidia Quadro FX card with version 91.36 software or later is required.

How do I ensure I’ve done a full uninstall of the KONA software?

1. In “Add / Remove Programs” uninstall the KONA Retail.

2. Uninstall the AJA Video for Windows Codec and the AJA KONA Drivers.
3. Restart and go to program files, and then verify there are no AJA folders or files

named KONA in the following directories:
