Supported Codecs

The Channel Recorder supports the following containers and codecs.

Note: If a combination of CODEC / CONTAINER / RESOLUTION is not supported, Channel Recorder will flood the logs with error. If this happens stop the recording using RECORD STOP. Please make sure that the mentioned combination are supported by consulting the tables below.

Note: Only the containers AVCINTRAMXF, DVCPROMXF, XDCAMMXF, XAVCMXF support capturing of closed captions. The closed captions must be part of SMPTE 334M CDP. The captured close caption will be found in the recorded clip in the wrapper according to SMPTE 436M and in the actual MXF essence.

Note: The examples below are not exhaustive. The parameter that can be changed within the example are in bold.
