Does KONA Offer Support for compressed codecs?
KONA cards capture uncompressed files exclusively. Compressed files can be used in most of the applications for which KONA has plug-ins, but in most cases they will not be playable in real-time. The exception is using HDV or DV files in Adobe Premiere Pro. When using AJA KONA project presets in Premeire Pro, compressed HDV or DV files can be played in real-time from the timeline. Other compressed formats such as DVCProHD and JPEG-2000 are currently not supported. Some unsupported formats can be imported into projects, but they will not be playable in real-time.
