When recording, you can choose the desired format like Apple ProRes, ProRes RAW, or Avid DNxHR/HD for your 'hero' files, and H.265 for 'proxy' files. The device will record both simultaneously. For live - streaming, just select your preferred platform like Facebook Live, Twitch, or YouTube and start sharing your content. Here are some important things to note. Don't expose the device to extreme temperatures or high humidity as it may damage the internal components. When handling the cables, be gentle to avoid any loose connections. Also, make sure to use the recommended power source within the 6.2V to 16.8V range. For maintenance, keep the device clean. You can use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the screen and the body. Periodically check the fan and heat sink for any dust buildup and clean them if necessary. If you need to calibrate the device, use the ATOMOS Calibrator with Calibrite ColorChecker Display Pro or ColorChecker Display Plus as mentioned in the specifications.
