FAQs

What kind of storage does the HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro use?

It primarily uses internal M.2 NVMe SSDs for recording. It can also record to network-attached storage (NAS) via its 10G Ethernet connection.

What video resolutions and frame rates can it record?

It supports recording and playback in resolutions up to DCI 4K (4096 x 2160) at 60 frames per second.

Does it support HDR recording?

Yes, the HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro supports High Dynamic Range (HDR) monitoring and recording.

What are the primary video codecs supported?

It supports professional codecs including ProRes (all variants), DNxHD, DNxHR, H.264, and H.265.

How do I update the firmware?

Firmware updates are downloaded from the Blackmagic Design support website and typically installed by connecting the device to a computer via USB or SD card.

Can I use standard SD cards for recording?

No, the HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro requires high-speed M.2 NVMe SSDs for internal recording due to the high data rates involved.

What is the purpose of the built-in scopes?

The built-in scopes (waveform, vectorscope, RGB parade, histogram) are professional monitoring tools that help users analyze the video signal for accurate exposure, color, and contrast adjustments.

Troubleshooting

Device not powering on

Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the device and a working power outlet. Verify the power adapter is the correct one for the HyperDeck Shuttle 4K Pro.

No video signal detected

Check that the video source is correctly connected to the appropriate input (e.g., 12G-SDI). Ensure the input resolution and frame rate are supported by the device and selected in the settings. Test with a different cable or source.

Recording fails or stops unexpectedly

Verify that the inserted M.2 SSD is compatible and has sufficient free space. Check the write speed of the SSD; slower drives may not keep up with high-bitrate codecs. If using NAS, ensure network connectivity is stable and the NAS has adequate performance.

Touchscreen is unresponsive

Gently clean the screen with a dry microfiber cloth. Try restarting the device by disconnecting and reconnecting the power.

Poor playback quality or dropped frames

Ensure the playback media meets the required read speed for the selected codec and resolution. If playing back from NAS, check network performance. Consider using a faster M.2 SSD for internal playback.
