Under Capture Options, select the appropriate formats and settings for your project.
Primary and Secondary Video Options Supported by KONA
In KONA operation, the Primary Format is the captured media format written to disk—the
video format used in your current project. Secondary format is used to perform up-, down-,
and cross-conversion of the input or output video. Selections vary according to the particular
Primary format used.
Analog output is always available.
Note: No frame-rate interpolation is applied for conversions from on frame-rate to another.
See “Selection of Primary & Secondary Formats ” on page 31.
for more video format and
conversion information.
YUV<->RGB Range
This control mode is not often used in most workflows. For information refer to
Video Input
Use the Video Input pull-down menu to select the appropriate signal type of your input. (The
current selection is reported in the display of the pull-down menu.)
Video Input always shows all the available input options based on your Primary and
Secondary format configuration. KONA software looks at 1) what model you have, 2) Primary
Format, and 3) Secondary Format (in that order) to determine what input options are
appropriate. Video Input Options Supported by KONA cards include:
•

KONA P2, XDCamHD, XDCamEX, and AVCHD Support
In Premiere Pro, P2 MXF files are also supported, with no capture, rendering, or re-wrapping
required. These files may be simply imported into the desired projects either directly from a
P2 card, or after being transferred from a P2 card to the local system. They can be used in
KONA DVCProHD projects, or in full-raster uncompressed projects.
