About Super Slo-Mo
This feature is part of the ChannelFlex Suite, which requires the AppCenter Elite license. This
feature also requires the HD license.
You can connect a Super Slo-Mo camera to two or three SDI inputs on a K2 Summit/Solo channel.
You must configure the channel to record Super Slo-Mo. When so configured, the channel is
record-only, not bi-directional record/play. The K2 Summit/Solo system records Super Slo-Mo at
either 2x frame rate or 3x frame rate, as configured. This creates a Super Slo-Mo clip. A Super
Slo-Mo clip contains no audio or ancillary data.
The K2 Summit/Solo system accommodates ancLTC or ancVITC timecode for a Super Slo-Mo clip
as follows:
•
A Super Slo-Mo clip contains embedded timecode extracted from Super Slo-Mo phase 1.
•
For 2x frame rate, timecode repeats every two frames.
•
For 3x frame rate, timecode repeats every three frames.
The result is that a Super Slo-Mo clip can function as if it has 1x clip length and timecode, even
though it is actually 2x or 3x times longer.
A Super Slo-Mo channel is in E-to-E (LoopThru) mode.
You can play the Super Slo-Mo clip on a standard bi-directional record/play channel. SDI OUT2
provides the Super Out feature on phase 1.
Import/Export and GXF transfer of a Super Slo-Mo clip are supported with other K2 Summit/Solo
systems at version 7.1.x software or higher.
An indicator icon
that a clip is a Super Slo-Mo clip appears in the Clips pane and in clip
properties.
