HDR Format Override
HyperDeck Extreme will automatically detect embedded HDR metadata in a 4K or 8K video
signal or file and display it via the HDMI output. If the signal or file is tagged incorrectly, or your
external display is not HDR compatible, you can override the HDR format for playback and
recording independently.
To do this, set the 'HDR format override' setting to an SDR option, such as Rec.2020 SDR.
The available HDR playback and record settings are:
Auto
Auto is the default setting that will let HyperDeck automatically select the output
format that conforms to the clip's HDR metadata.
Rec.709
For high definition video using standard dynamic range.
Rec.2020 SDR
This setting is used for Ultra HD video using standard dynamic range.
HLG
HLG stands for 'hybrid log gamma'. This format allows HDR video to be played
back on HDR capable TVs and monitors, including those that support up to
Rec.2020 SDR.
The following settings support the Rec.2020 color gamut, plus PQ, or perceptual
quantizer published as SMPTE ST2084. PQ is the function of wide gamut HDR that
allows for the display of brighter images. Luminance values in candelas per meter
squared, for example 1000 cd/m
meter supported by the corresponding format.

LCD White Balance Calibration
To perform LCD white balance calibration, adjust the 'LCD temperature' and 'LCD tint' controls
so that the two reference patches look neutral. After you change the settings, you can use the
'reset' button to return the controls to the factory calibration. The 'restore' button brings back
your new settings, which helps you compare the appearance before and after calibration. When
the LCD shows an accurate white balance, save your settings.
Factory Reset
Tap on 'reset HyperDeck' to restore your HyperDeck to factory settings.
LUTs
Display LUTs can be especially helpful when using the HyperDeck Extreme as a field recorder.
They work by telling the unit what color and luminance output to display. This can be useful
for when you are using the 'film' dynamic range on your camera which has an intentionally
undersaturated, 'flat' appearance. By applying a display LUT, you can get an idea of what your
video will look like after it has been graded.
Display LUTs can be applied for the LCD display as well as the SDI monitor out. To view a LUT
you first need to select your active LUT. In the LUT menu, tap on the LUT you want to use, it will
highlight blue. Tap the tick icon at the bottom. A vertical blue line will appear to the left of the
LUT name to confirm the LUT is active.
