System .
Refer to “Data track setup” on page 1 and “Adjusting audio reference level” on
page 193 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.
On the SDA-00 K2 Media Client, available settings change depending on the video
compression format selected, as in the following sections:
• “DV compression format setup”
• “MPEG compression format setup”
• “MPEG:D10 compression format setup”
NOTE: If you are using a channel suite with channels from multiple K2 Media
Clients, make sure that you have selected a channel from the K2 Media Client that
you want to configure before accessing Configuration Manager.
CAUTION: When using a K2 Media 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 Media Client and increase its
bandwidth requirements, you risk losing media access. For a more
detailed description of load balancing, see the
K2 Media Client System
Guide.
