Input
There are four timecode input options available when recording.
Selecting video input will take the embedded timecode from HDMI sources with
Video Input
SMPTE RP 188 metadata. This will maintain sync between your HDMI source and
the file recorded on the HyperDeck Shuttle HD.
Internal
Use this option to record time of day timecode via the built in timecode generator.
By selecting 'last clip regen' for your timecode input, each file will start one frame
Last Clip
after the last frame of the previous clip. For example, if your first clip ends on
Regen
10:28:30:10, the next clip timecode will start at 10:28:30:11.
If you want to set a timecode manually, select the preset option. Recorded clips will

start at the timecode set via the 'preset' setting as shown later in this section.
Drop Frame
For NTSC sources at frame rates of 29.97 or 59.94, you can select 'drop frame' or 'non-drop
frame' timecode. If the source is unknown, select 'default'. This will maintain the standard of the
input, or default to drop frame if there is no valid timecode.
Preset
You can set your timecode manually by pressing the set button and entering the start timecode
using the search dial and set button. Make sure the 'preset' option is selected under the
input menu.
