Introduction This document describes the hardware settings for DVStorm series, DVStormXA (including EDIUS DVX), DVRaptorRT2, or EDIUS SP/NX PCI-X/NX PCI-e. The hardware settings for EDIUS vary depending on the mounted devices. So, check your system configuration and perform the settings appropriately according to this document. If DVStorm series, DVStormXA, DVRaptorRT2, or EDIUS SP/NX PCI-X/NX PCI-e is mounted, you can select any of devices shown in the Output Device in the Project Setting and those in the Input Device in the Input Setting.

4 EDIUS SP Settings * EDIUS SP is recognized as "SHX-E1" on EDIUS or Device Manager. System Settings  RT buffers Set number of frames of buffers used in real time playback from 32, 48, 64 and 96. The larger the number is, the easier real time playback is, but it will require more system memory space. You can select the reference input method from [Ref Sync], [Input Sync], [OFF (Free Run)]. If the selected method does not supply the correct sync, it will automatically be adjusted to a suitable method. For example, during playback, if there is no input sync signal, the setting will be OFF. At capture, in will be set to Input Sync. The sync state is displayed below. [NO SYNC/SYNC OK] shows whether current system operates simultaneously with input signal or not. [NO SIGNAL/SIGNAL OK] means whether something is input in input terminal or not. Adjusts sync mode phase. Check when you use Input Sync while capturing. Return the items with * to the default setting values. Sync Signal Phase Adjust Use Input Sync while capturing Default ##

POINT When there is no synchronous signal input at setting [Input sync], the system automatically operates in [OFF (free run)]. (The setting remains in [Input sync].) Even if synchronous signal is input after that, the operation keeps in [OFF (free run)]. In this case, click Player and Recorder in EDIUS preview window to switch over the active monitor. The system recognizes the synchronous signal and the operation returns to [Input sync]. General I/O Settings ##

Component Level Select component level in NTSC. Enable Wide Screen Signaling If TV complies with Wide Screen Signal (WSS: signal to switch aspect ratio), aspect ratio automatically switches (4:3 or 16:9). When WSS is not necessary, remove the check. Input Headroom [dB] Sets headroom from standard input level. Output Settings Balanced Audio Settings Input Level [dBu] Select standard input level.

When setting to [None], items for [Adaptation Level] and [Threshold] will be invalid. Set the adjustment volume for black expansion. As the adjustment volume is larger, black gain becomes more emphasized. Set to which level of luminance (brightness) black will be emphasized. The level will be set brighter as you move the cursor to right. Strengthen the gain in high luminance area toward luminance signal. This option improves the gradation reproducibility for damaged area seen as white due to high luminance. When setting to [None], items for [Adaptation Level] and [Threshold] will be invalid. Set the adjustment volume for white gain limit. As the limit volume is larger, white gain will be adjusted to lower. Set to which level of luminance (brightness) white gain will be adjusted lower.

Canopus HQ Codec Settings Offline You cannot select this setting. Custom Check this option to adjust [Q] and [Max size]. Q Adjust image quality. Set between 4 and 19. The smaller the number is, the higher the quality is. Max size Adjust the maximum bitrate. You can control the file size when it sometimes becomes much bigger than usual due to too much noise included in the image. The setting value [100]% shows the same bitrate as the one before codec compression. For example, 100% of 1440 X 1080 60i is approx. 750Mbps.

Use this mode for checking fine motion. Select [No Tearing] for faster performance than [No Tearing/Combing]. If you select [No Tearing] or [No Tearing/Combing], the [Reduce PC bus load] checkbox is displayed. When bus busy occurs, you may check [Reduce PC bus load] to improve it, though CPU loading increases. * This function uses the graphic accelerator driver to avoid tearing. * When you select [No Tearing/Combing], the image may not be smoothly displayed depending on the refresh rate of your PC monitor. We recommend to set the PC monitor refresh rate close to integer multiple of the video frame rate. Reduce PC bus load ##
