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 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 system accommodates 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.
