Atomos Samurai Recorder Firmware 4.11

Fixes:

- Added support for Avid DNxHD 36. (NB: this is only available for 1080p, as defined by the SMPTE VC-3 AvidDNxHD Spec, and not for 1080i or 720p)
- Added support for playback of Avid DNxHD files from NLEs or other recorders (eg: AJA, Sound Devices & Blackmagic Design)
- Added support for file recovery of Avid DNxHD movies
- Fixed an issue where it was not possible to use File Recovery when the ‘Recover Later’ option had been selected
- Added ‘Recover Later’ option from playback file list
- Re-calibrated audio (fixes -12dBFS premature clipping issue)
- AtomOS firmware update indicates “Please wait…” during updating (replacing Atomos logo)
- Fixed an issue with DNxHD where the last scanline of some frames were encoded incorrectly
- Updated DNxHD codec names in main display to show: 220x, 220, 145 and 36
- Camera trigger must be set to “None/Timecode” before rolling timecode trigger can be enabled. The rolling timecode trigger enable button is grayed out for all other camera triggers. This should prevent capture of multiple files
- Fixed issue preventing emergency firmware upgrade from running

About Video Recorder Adapter Updates:

Applying a new firmware package on your Video Recorder adapter should improve overall performance and stability, fix various issues encountered with the device, or add support for newly developed features.

The Video Recorder adapter should be carefully upgraded by a power user (that is to say, someone who has the know-how to successfully complete the process), but it can also be performed by an average user at his or her own risk.

Either way, given the fact that each producer has their own method for installing a new firmware, and that every device has a particular way to enter the update mode, you must not consider upgrading the adapter's software until you have read and thoroughly understood the installation steps.

As a rule, said steps shouldn't pose too much of a challenge because manufacturers strive to make them as easy as possible. As with everything else, exceptions do occur, and users should be prepared for them.

Usually, you should transfer the compatible firmware to the Recorder through a USB cable or a memory card, and afterwards enter update mode from the unit's setup menu or through a specific power-on method.

With this in mind, if you intend to apply this release, make sure the package is compatible with your Video Recorder and that it brings about the changes you want or require; hit the download button and apply the new firmware.
