AtomOS 11.06.00 Firmware Release Notes

Ninja

Installation Instructions

Atomos recommends that your Ninja is plugged into mains power before commencing the firmware update.

1. Insert a compatible, formatted SSD into the Docking Station.
2. Unzip the downloaded file and copy the ATOMNJA.FW file to the root directory of the SSD.
3. Eject the SSD according to operating system guidelines.
4. Insert the SSD into the Ninja.
5. If you have an Atomos Connect accessory, ensure this is connected to your device before powering on, as the module firmware will also need to be updated as part of this FW release.
6. Power on the Ninja and the firmware update process will begin automatically.
   Note: If your Ninja is already powered on, you will be prompted to perform the firmware update when a drive containing new firmware is inserted.
7. Once the update is complete, your Ninja will power itself down.
8. Power your Ninja back on and the device will automatically start updating the Atomos Connect accessory.
9. To verify if the firmware update was successfully completed, navigate to the main menu and scroll to the info tab.

Note: Once firmware 11.06.00 is successfully installed on your Ninja, the unit may reboot to update the Atomos Connect firmware. Do not interrupt the firmware installation process.

New Features

Version 11.06.00 further enhances AtomOS's ever-growing toolkit for connected workflows with the introduction of SRT Streaming, and a new Camera to Cloud destination with MediaSilo. Fujifilm users will be particularly excited to see F-LOG2 support across all AtomOS 11 devices.

Introduction of SRT Streaming

With AtomOS 11.06.00, your Atomos device now supports SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) streaming in both ‘Caller’ and ‘Listener’ modes.

Configuring your SRT device mode is done via Atomos Cloud Studio, just in the same way you’d configure a RTMP or RTMP/S destination.

• Supported SRT Modes: Caller, Listener
• Supported Resolutions: 1280 × 720, 1920 × 1080
• Supported Frame Rates (Progressive Only): 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 30, 50, 59.94, 60

SRT is an open-source video transport protocol and technology stack that optimizes video streaming performance across unpredictable networks. With secure streams and simplified firewall traversal, SRT delivers the best quality video over the worst networks.

Camera to Cloud Integration with MediaSilo

As announced at NAB 2024, Atomos Cloud Studio now supports MediaSilo from EditShare.

Access to MediaSilo is included in the Camera to Cloud plan in Atomos Cloud Studio, where you can configure your connections and destinations through our easy-to-use web-interface.

Feel free to take a look at our MediaSilo setup guide on our YouTube channel.

Fujifilm F-LOG2 Support

We're also adding full support for F-LOG2 to our AtomOS 11 devices, allowing for more accurate color processing when shooting and monitoring in this profile.

• Use F-Log2/REC709/BT2020 gamma/gamut combination for YCC video
• Use F-Log2/REC709/BT2020 gamma/gamut combination as the ‘Output’ setting for ProRes RAW
• Use F-Log2/REC709/BT2020 gamma/gamut combination as the Color setting for ProRes RAW and Proxy Recordings
  

Known Limitations to be resolved in future releases

• It may take up to 10 seconds for Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections to re-established when users switch between record and playback mode. Please allow the system time to automatically reconnect to your network.
• In some rare instances, A/V Sync drift may be observed whilst the device in NDI RX mode.
• When starting a stream using Wowza in SRT Listener mode, it may occasionally take up to two minutes to detect this device's SRT output.
• After a reboot, only start recording in C2C mode once your device is fully connected to the internet (this may take up to 10 seconds). If you don’t wait for the connection to establish, you might end up with duplicate uploads in your C2C destination folder.
• In the RAW + Proxy C2C mode, recording is disabled if the device is being fed a 2Kp59.94 RAW feed from a Sony FX9.
• When switching into C2C mode, the monitoring image might momentarily be displayed with a magenta tint; however, it reverts to the original monitor color shortly after.
• In RemoteView mode, you may experience UI freezes after switching frame rates mid-transmission. We recommend sticking to a single frame rate while using RemoteView.
• When switching to a DCI 4K resolution with H.265 selected as the recording format, RemoteView might not work as expected. We recommend sticking to 16:9 when selecting H.265 as the record format in RemoteView mode.
• When outputting 720p to other devices via HDMI/SDI, there's a chance that image artifacts will be present on the receiving end.
• When playing back an H.265 clip that was recorded at 720p50 & 720p59.94, the Zoom and Waveform monitoring functions are disabled.
• Network Record Control is not available when H.265 is selected as the record format.
• Live Streaming is only available when using standard YCC 422 video inputs, and when the record codec is set to either ProRes or DNx. If ProRes RAW or H.265 are selected as the record codec, streaming isn't available.
• If the user boots into ProRes RAW recording mode with a YCC SDI Input, the monitoring image may be incorrect. Monitoring and Recording whilst outputting a RAW signal to the Ninja in ProRes RAW mode will work as expected.
• If switching between different camera models whilst HDMI Compatibility mode is selected, ensure that you reboot the Ninja before connecting a new camera.
• Performance may be sluggish when using two AtomRemote apps connected to a single Atomos Connect. Please only pair one AtomRemote app per device.
• When shooting in the DCI aspect ratio with dual record enabled, the proxy files are cropped to a 16:9 aspect ratio.
