Remote Control Via The Lanc Connector; Continuous Recording - Blackmagic Design Video Assist Manual De Instalación Y Funcionamiento

On the 5" video assist, swipe the screen up or down to reveal or hide the toolbars.
NOTE When recording from an HDMI or SDI camera, make sure the output is clean
with overlays turned off as any overlays that are present in your camera's video output
will be recorded with your image. Please refer to the section titled 'recording clean
HDMI from DSLR cameras' for more information.

Remote Control via the LANC Connector

On 7" video assist models you can start and stop recording remotely using an external
LANC controller. Simply plug the LANC controller into the 2.5mm LANC input on the right side
of the unit.

Continuous Recording

Blackmagic Video Assist 4K and 12G models support continuous recording when using more
than one card, or on an external drive if your video assist has a USB-C port. If you are recording
an important event and you don't want to stop recording, simply insert a second SD card or
connect an external drive. Once your current card or drive is full, the recording will automatically
spill over to the next slot. There will be no frames dropped in the process. For example, if the
first segment on card 1 stopped at 00:40:01:00, the recording on the second card will start
at 00:40:01:01.
When editing your clips on the timeline, simply place the second clip against the tail of the
first and they will play through the recording as if it is one complete clip.
Having an additional card or drive connected also lets you quickly change media. If you want to
switch to another card or the active drive, simply hold down the 'record' button. The recording
will spill over to the next available slot without missing a frame. Now you can remove the first
card or drive and start using the media right away!
TIP For continuous recording or fast slot change overs, make sure your cards are
formatted before you start your recording. You can format your SD card or external
drive while recording on another slot, simply tap on the storage indicators to reveal
the storage settings. See the 'storage media' section later in this manual for
further information on formatting.
