HDR

HDR (High Dynamic Range) provides the ability to display a wider and richer range of colors, much brighter whites, and much deeper, darker blacks than standard signals allow. This gives your imagery a more ‘dynamic’ look and allows for natural true to life colors to be communicated to your audience.

KONA 5 HDR workflows can also benefit from AJA's Control Room application and its companion, AJA Control Panel, which comes complete with built-in HDR test patterns. 

AJA Control Room provides VPID signaling for SDR/HDR Transfer Characteristics, Colorimetry and Luminance transfer characteristics over SDI, bringing flexible output options to your KONA 5. HDMI ports that were already HDR compatible will work simultaneously, for HDR output via both SDI and HDMI.

AJA Control Room software adds support for HDR metadata capture from an incoming SDI or HDMI signal. The captured .mov video file will have embedded HDR metadata, allowing the file to be played back at its intended dynamic range.

AJA Control Room software also provides the KONA 5 with HDR Auto Playback Detection. Embedded HDR metadata in a recorded .mov file, is read and used to automatically set the HDR format on the monitor(s) connected to the KONA 5 HDMI and/or SDI outputs. Support for file-based .mov HDR outputs with metadata from Adobe Premiere Pro/Adobe Media Encoder HDR files is also available. Screening those rendered outputs is a simple and hi-quality experience with AJA Control Room. Every frame is presented in its full-quality, at the timing intended, and with the proper HDR format set correctly and automatically.

This unified software, driver and firmware package contains everything you need in order to start using your AJA video I/O hardware and includes enhancements. Please read the Release Notes for complete detail. 

Important note for macOS users:

AJA has been excitedly working in preparation for compatibility between our latest Desktop Software and macOS Big Sur.

As per Release Notes, AJA’s current v15.5.3 Desktop Software package officially supports up to macOS Catalina.

We would therefore encourage our customers to stay on macOS Catalina or earlier and await the arrival of the next version of AJA’s Desktop Software package. Otherwise, if upgrading to Big Sur is immediately necessary, we strongly encourage carefully testing a limited number of systems before upgrading all to ensure full compatibility.

With the introduction of macOS High Sierra (v10.13), Apple now requires that third party application developers be identified during kernel extension installations. Failure to do so will make AJA devices fail to operate (Unsupported AJA Device). Depending on your macOS version and AJA Desktop Software installation history, different installation outcomes are possible. Please see the release notes for detailed information and troubleshooting options.

The following AJA applications are installed in v15.5.3

  • AJA Control Panel v15.5.3: 
    • For setup and control of your AJA KONA, Io or T-TAP product, including firmware updates.
    • For high quality capture, playback and output.
  • AJA System Test v15.5.3:

  • AJA Control Room v15.5.3:

Important macOS Mojave installation information

• With the introduction of macOS Mojave (v10.14), Apple now requests that third party kernel extensions be “notarized” by Apple. AJA’s device driver kernel extension has been notarized starting with AJA Software version 15.2. Apple has indicated that for security purposes, future macOS versions may prevent the loading of unnotarized device drivers, in which case, AJA software prior to v15.2 will result in AJA devices failing to operate (Unsupported AJA Device)

Important macOS High Sierra installation information

• With the introduction of macOS High Sierra (v10.13), Apple now requires that third party application developers be identified during kernel extension installations. Failure to do so will make AJA devices fail to operate (Unsupported AJA Device).

• Depending on your macOS version and AJA Desktop Software installation history, the following installation outcomes are possible:

◦ macOS Sierra and Earlier Supported Versions

- No problems exist for AJA software installation or updates with these earlier versions of macOS.

◦ Earlier macOS to High Sierra Update

- No problems should occur if the AJA Desktop Software package is already installed on macOS Sierra (or earlier) and then update your Mac to High Sierra. The identification of AJA as a trusted developer is “grandfathered in” to High Sierra.

◦ macOS High Sierra First AJA Desktop Software Install

- No problems should occur if your Mac is running High Sierra macOS, you install AJA Desktop Software for the first time, and you follow the instructions shown during installation (Figure 1).

- Do NOT click OK (Figure 1). 

Figure 1 — First-time installation on macOS High Sierra

cid:756A2C97-2C45-4272-A7E0-CC0373C5228F@aja.com

Instead, click Open Security Preferences (or go to System Preferences>Security and Privacy) and then click Allow for AJA Video Systems (Figure 2).

Figure 2 — click Allow for AJA Video Systems 

NOTE: If after successful installation, you remove AJA applications from your computer using the AJA Uninstaller developer identification is retained by macOS High Sierra. Reinstallation should proceed without any problems.

• Recovery from Installation Approval Failure:

◦ If you clicked OK during installation and skipped the developer approval step, the AJA Desktop Software installation will complete, but macOS’ GateKeeper security will prevent AJA’s device driver from loading, and AJA devices will not operate (Unsupported AJA Device).

◦ Apple has allowed a time window, within which you can belatedly approve a developer after installation. If you go to System Preferences>Security and Privacy, within 30 minutes of installation, the developer message and Allow button will be available for use. After 30 minutes, however, the message and button are removed from the window. Recovery from this involves uninstalling all AJA files (some manually), reinstalling the AJA Desktop Software package, and clicking on Allow for AJA Video Systems developer. 

• Recovery from Installation Approval Failure (2nd Level if necessary)

1. Run the AJA Uninstaller, located in the AJA Utilities folder in the Mac Applications folder.

2. Access the Users Library, which is hidden. To access the library:

3. Go to the Finder.

- In the Finder Menu Bar and click on Go.

- Hold down the Option key. The Library folder appears as long as the Option key is held down.

- Go to Library>Preferences and delete all com.aja.*.* files. There may be one file or several files.

4. Remove AJA Control Panel from the Dock, if applicable.

5. Restart the Mac.

6. Install the AJA Desktop Software package.

7. During installation, click on Open Security Preferences (or go to System Preferences,>Security and Privacy).

8. Under the General tab, click on the Allow button for AJA Video Systems. The button is only available for 30 minutes.
