New in v26.11: Screenshots and Recording
Capture, playback, and export footage and frame grabs on the OV1 itself, with no external recorder needed. Everything happens directly on device, meaning playback is instant and never slows down the set.
BETA
This is a beta feature and offered as a preview of a future stable release. It is possible that recordings or screenshots may be lost while we prove out this new functionality of the OV1.
How to Use
[ 1 ]
From the OV1 menu, press the new “CAP” button. Alternatively, press and hold the OV1 button from the home screen.
[ 2 ]
Press the red record button to start/stop a recording, or the screenshot button to capture the current frame.
[ 3 ]
Press the “Takes” button to open the recorded takes gallery.
[ 4 ]
Press the “Gallery” button to open the screenshot gallery. Please note: pressing export will move all photos from the OV1 to a connected USB drive.
Screenshots
Screenshots can be captured as full-resolution stills and are saved both with and without overlay information which can be toggled on and off. Screenshots are browsed in a new “Gallery” window, can be marked and filtered as favourites, deleted, or exported off device onto a connected USB drive.
Recording
Recording allows live video capture of the monitor feed stored in a lossless format for reliable “focus monitor only” reviewing of a take. Takes are then navigated in a filmstrip browser on the focus monitor and can be exported individually to a connected USB drive as MP4 video files.
BETA Limitations
- Screenshots are limited to 100 photos
- Takes are limited to 10 clips of up to 5 minutes each
- The ability to favourite video clips is not currently functional
- Recording can not be set to automatically trigger (yet!)
Roadmap Features
- Automatic record trigger from camera record tally
- Automatic frame capture on start of a recording
- Export selection tools so that individual screenshots can be exported
- Expanded memory access for saving more screenshots and takes
