Hi
Sorry if this is dumb question or it has been answered already. I couldn't find solution so far in the forum or the manual or the menu of the device.

When I start recording with the HyperDeck, the timer on the little display shows something completely different every time, but never 00:00:00:00. After every recording is done, I copy the files from the SSD disk and then format the SSD using Hyperdeck own menu. I want to reset the timecode on the screen (to 00:00:00:00) before every new recording, because I need to know how much time has passed since the recording started.

How can I do this? Thanks!

Read Hyperdeck manual Version 5.2 page 21 at the end of the page

I guess you have the Timecode on source.. So your source sends timecode to the recorder.
If i remember correctly chaniging it to something like source = Internal And with formatted drives it should start at 00;00;00

Thanks! I will check that. Btw, I tried to press the display button while recording in order to enter the menu. I didn't enter the menu, instread the timecode changed to exact time of the recording I started, Which works fine for me. I guess I skipped that part in the manual
