HyperDeck Settings
HyperDeck connection settings are located in the 'HyperDeck' tab of the ATEM Software
Control switcher settings. Here you'll see setup options for up to four HyperDecks.
Type in your HyperDeck's IP address in the 'IP Address' box and choosing the source it's
plugged into from the 'input' dropdown menu. Click 'connect' and your HyperDeck is ready
to be controlled.
Status indicators appear above and below each HyperDeck icon to let you know the
connection status. A green tick means your HyperDeck is connected, in remote and
ready to go.
If your HyperDeck is connected and recognized, but does not have its remote button enabled,
you will see an indicator letting you know remote is not active.
If your HyperDeck is not recognized, you will see a 'failed to connect' indicator. If you see this
indicator, check the HyperDeck's Ethernet port is connected to your network and the
IP address is entered correctly.
Auto Roll
You can set a HyperDeck disk recorder to automatically roll video when it is switched to the
program output. For example, you can cue a HyperDeck to the point you want your source to
begin, then roll the source by pressing its input button on the mix effects program row.
As HyperDecks must buffer a couple of frames before commencing playback, the actual cut will
be delayed a preset number of frames to ensure a clean transition. This is just like setting a
preroll on a videotape machine. You can adjust the length of this delay by changing the number
in the 'offset' box. We've found that five frames usually ensures a clean cut.
If you want to cue to a still frame of video or manually trigger video playback on your
HyperDeck, you can also deselect the 'auto roll' feature.
