51 Using AJA’s Machina Application — Setup Window
Audio Track
Select the number of audio tracks for this project. KONA models support up to 16 tracks
depending on the Model.
Clip Options Clip Name
In the Clip Options menu, click on the Clip Name to name the
file you will be creating. Subsequent file numbers will
increment from this one.
Reel Name
Click on the hot text field to enter a source tape name—the
name of the tape on the VTR. Only QuickTime and DPX files
store this information.
Sequence Offset
When capturing file-per-frame sequences, after naming a file,
you can set a Sequence Offset number that will determine
the beginning number of the file sequence.
Create New Folder Per Sequence
A check-box is provided to enable this automatic function. When you check this selection,
Machina will gather each frame capture sequence in a new folder, based on clip names, on your
disk. (Not applicable to QuickTime or AVI movie files.)
Abort on Dropped Frames
Checking this box causes a capture to automatically stop any time that KONA detects frames are
being dropped for some reason. This ensures you don’t waste storage space and time capturing
when there may be a problem with the capture.
Display Options Display Options configure how the desktop display operates for capture.
Display Type
The Display Type pull-down menu provides a choice of display
rendering formats: OpenGL Texture or OpenGL DrawPixels. This
setting changes the way the PC’s GPU handles video overlay on
your desktop monitor. OpenGL Texture should always be used
whenever possible. Note, however that this setting is not
guaranteed to work on all boards. It has been tested primarily
with high-end nVidia workstation graphics cards. Using OpenGL
Texture mode will allow any applied LUTs to be displayed on the
desktop display as well as on the video output.
Open GL DrawPixels should only be used when you are
experiencing display problems. Typically, this will be for
graphics cards that are not AJA approved, and that have less
OpenGL support. This mode does not allow applied LUTs to be
displayed on the desktop. This mode also has many limitations
when working with YUV files. When using this setting, files may appear pixelated on the desktop
display. This does not affect the quality or resolution of the video being captured or output from
the KONA card.
