Capture Formats
When capturing, you can record data in the following file formats:
• BMP
• DPX
• MOV (QuickTime)
NOTE: Support by KONA of QuickTime for Windows has been discontinued. However,
ProRes family capture and playback for macOS, Windows and Linux is supported
via AJA Control Room.
• MXF
• TGA
NOTE: Other file types can be captured using third-party capture applications such as
Sienna, Softron, Tools on Air, Drastic, or Quadrus.
Internal HD/SD Hardware Downstream Keyer
KONA cards have a powerful HD/SD hardware keyer that can place graphic files
with an alpha channel over HD/SD video in a selectable matte or the contents of
the card’s framebuffer from a software application (including AJA TV). Key a bug
or text over picture and avoid what might normally be a lengthy software render.
Also, working with these software applications, you can key video that has an
alpha-channel over video input or a matte. The downstream keyer operates with
HD/SD video, and is not available for UltraHD/4K signals.
RS-422 Machine Control
9-pin D style connectors provide a control path for VTRs, camcorders, disk
media servers, and other devices using RS-422 SMPTE (Sony) protocol. RS-422
connectors located on the KONA card itself and the K3G-Box are female, while the
RS-422 connectors on break-out cables are male.
