To plug in an SD card:
1
Hold the SD card with the gold connectors facing your HyperDeck's LCD and align it
with the media slot. Now gently push the card into the slot until you feel it lock firmly
into place.
2
Your HyperDeck will verify the SD card. This is shown by an illuminated green indicator
above the SD card slot. When the indicator turns off and the stop button on the control
panel is illuminated, your HyperDeck is ready to record.
To remove the card, gently push until you feel it click, then release. The card will eject a short
distance, allowing you to hold the edge of the card and remove it from the slot.

Recording Ultra HD and HD video with HyperDeck
HyperDeck models that support Ultra HD video record compressed Ultra HD using Apple
ProRes, plus Avid DNxHR on HyperDeck Studio 12G and HyperDeck Studio Mini. All HyperDeck
models can record HD video using ProRes and DNxHD 220x codecs. HyperDeck Studio
models that record on SSDs can also record uncompressed HD.
Recording Video with HyperDeck Studio Mini
HyperDeck Studio Mini can record compressed HD and Ultra HD video up to 2160p30
via 6G-SDI.
To record video:
1
Insert your formatted SD card into either of the SD card slots. The indicator above the
slot will illuminate green as your HyperDeck reads the card. When the indicator turns
off, HyperDeck Studio Mini is ready to record.

HyperDeck Studio Mini automatically detects when SDI video is connected and
displays the image on the control panel LCD.
If you want to change the codec, you can choose from a variety of codecs using the
control panel LCD menu or the Blackmagic HyperDeck Setup utility software. For more
information, refer to the 'control panel display menu' section, or 'Blackmagic HyperDeck
Setup/selecting your video format'.

As your HyperDeck is recording, the slot indicator on the control panel LCD will
alternate between displaying the active slot, and record time remaining on the card.
