Video reference standard setup
The video reference standard setting is global to the K2 Summit Production Client or
K2 Solo Media Server and applies to all channels. For the reference standard currently
selected, the only clips available for playout are those that use that reference standard.
Clips that use a different reference standard are disabled (grayed out).
NOTE: When you change the video reference standard setting, a restart is required
to put the change into effect.
To access video reference standard settings, open Configuration Manager and click
System
.
“Data track setup” on page 162
for other settings that appear on the System
tab.
Record channel video setup
Video record compression settings are not global; they can be set on a channel by
channel basis.
NOTE: If you are using a channel suite with channels from multiple sources, make
sure that you have selected a channel from the K2 system that you want to configure
before accessing Configuration Manager.
CAUTION: When using a K2 Summit Production Client with shared
storage, bear in mind that any configuration changes that result in an
increased bandwidth (such as increasing the bit rate, media formats,
and ratio of record channels to play channels) affect load balancing.
Therefore, if you change your intended use of a K2 Summit client and
increase its bandwidth requirements, you risk losing media access. For
a more detailed description of load balancing, see the
K2 SAN
Installation and Service Manual
