My camcorder since 2007, Sony HDR-FX7E has a quality lens Carl Zeiss 20x optical zoom and attachments. It is a 1080i50 HDV camcorder that records 1440x1080 anamorphic 4:2:0 MPEG-2 compressed 8-bit video on mini (H)DV tape cassettes. However it has Firewire and HDMI out ports to optional record at higher quality on disk recorders or via capture cards. To extend the HDV camcorder's lifespan, I bought in 2013 a Blackmagic HyperDeck Shuttle 2 portable SSD Disk recorder with HDMI and SDI in/out. I did just record a few test clips with 10-bit FHD 1920x1080 uncompressed.mov and ProRes 422 HQ codecs. https://tinyurl.com/3ncr6m5v The issue is now that the EOL and EOS HyperDeck Shuttle 2 seemingly is locked by a DNxHD bug similar like it had in 2016, and doesn't recognize any Video input. https://tinyurl.com/3fetrkp5 I did preserve a copy of the last 2015 version of the Blackmagic_HyperDeck Setup utility for Shuttle 2, but which unhappily is a Windows program. I read that Wine isn't good for low-level usb communication as needed. https://tinyurl.com/2uvv7d86 -rw-rw-r--. 1 terje terje 253841408 okt. 7 2015 HyperDeck_4.4.1.msi Do we have other easier options on Linux that can run the setup via usb, beyond borrowing a Windows PC?
