Selecting a Video Format

The MAXX-2420-EX can record and play video in four high definition video formats:

1080i @ 59.94 Hz

1080i @ 50 Hz

720p @ 59.94 Hz

720p @ 50 Hz

To select a video format:
• Go to Edit>Configure>Timing dialog on the GUI.
• Select a check-box for the rate at which you will record or play.
A reminder will appear, to stop video on all channels and prepare for automatic restart in the new
format. This takes at least 12 seconds, so the change should not be performed on-air.

Figure 8 – Selecting Video Format

The MAXX-2420-EX must be set to operate in one format at a time; it does not play mixed video
formats when the video format is changed, the only files visible on the GUI will be those
recorded in the currently-selected video format. Files in another format will become visible when
the server is placed in that operational mode. . For clarity, it is a good idea to store content in
directories that are separated according to video format.
Audio is recorded and played at the industry standard of 48K, regardless of the video format
selected.
