If PLAYBACK is set to 1080p, the Preview output provides a 1920 x 1080p 10-bit 4:2:2 progres-
sive scan video signal at 23.98, 24.00, 25.00, or 29.97 Hz.
Note: the Preview HD-SDI output provides 4 channels of embedded audio plus timecode.
Note: The embedded timecode value is equal to the Time Code value of the recorded
frame previewed by the PVW output. I.e. the timecode sequence will be discontinuous.
Note: RED ONE™ outputs progressive scan video, it does not support 1080PsF format.
Note: If an ANMORPHIC record mode has been selected (2K ANA, 3K ANA, 4K ANA) the
video visible on the Preview HD-SDI output has been stretched 2:1 to illustrate the final
2.40:1 aspect ratio of the final image projection. The actual recorded image is 1.2:1 aspect.
HDMI
An HDMI Type A connector provides an HDTV compatible 720p video and audio signal, or a
DVI / SXGA compatible 1280 x 848 progressive scan video signal, at 50.00 or 59.94 Hz.
Selection between these two modes is made in SYSTEM / MONITOR / PREVIEW. The default
setting is VIDEO (720p). In this mode, the HDMI output replicates the HD Preview video output.
Note: In this mode, if PLAYBACK is set to 1080p the HDMI output will provide a 1080p 10-
bit 4:2:2 progressive scan video signal with 4 channel embedded audio at 23.98, 24.00,
25.00, or 29.97 Hz when the RED-ONE camera is placed into playback.
The alternative mode is MENUS (DVI). In this mode, the HDMI output is compatible with most
DVI based SXGA or higher resolution computer monitors. Use is as an external Viewfinder.
Note: This mode is not compatible with PLAYBACK is set to 1080p. i.e. no output is avail-
able when the RED-ONE camera is placed into playback.
Note: If an ANMORPHIC record mode has been selected (2K ANA, 3K ANA, 4K ANA) the
video visible on the HDMI output has been stretched 2:1 to illustrate the final 2.40:1 aspect
ratio of the final image projection. The actual recorded image is 1.2:1 aspect.
