High Frame Rate (HFR) Requirements

• Requires all incoming signals to be genlocked, and using the same format and frame rate.
• Requires timecode embedded in the SDI signal. This may be challenging, but is the only way to be 100% sure of the sync between all the signals.

High Frame Rate (HFR) Limitations

• Currently this feature only works with Blackmagic-Design devices. Other devices will be supported later on.
• Currently you can only group 2 inputs max. Contact us if you need to support more inputs.
• The number of formats and frame rates is currently limited (up to 120fps). Contact us if you need to support higher framerates.
