UHD Pro, 4K Video Recorder, HDMI Capture DVR with H.265/H.264 Codec, Cinematic 4K@24fps Recording(Up to 4K@30fps), No PC Required.

Still playing around with it. I've got the picture quality to an almost perfect 1080p 60hz with a slight studer once or twice per hour. The picture is stunning otherwise! The sound quality is awesome for stereo. Haven't tried 4k yet. I like using the smaller 25gig disc. I'm going to try an aftermarket hdmi to hook to the computer to see if that resolves the once in a while glitch or shudder in the picture. The hdmi out seems cheap and might be causing this. It's good they way it is, but I'm a perfectionist and I'm watching for it. No one else can see what I talking about. Lol!

The unit came on time. Setup of the hardware was very easy. Recordings were obtained per the enclosed instructions without any complications. The recordings are very good.However, the unit/recordings had significate limitations/problems:1. The USB storage device should always be formatted using NTFS or exFat formats. Otherwise, the records will be divided into multiple files, which are leaves a short gap in the recorded program that exceeds 2 or 4 GB.2. The remote control is relatively weak and has limited functions. Getting the main unit to respond to remote control commands requires close proximity between the two and the remote needs to be pointing directly at the main unit.3. During playback, the fast forward function skips the playback forward a fixed time (approximately 30 sec). When trying to skip commercials during a playback, the unit’s fixed time jump does not end at the end of the commercials. Rather, the jump ends up skipping part of the program as well. To see the entire program requires watching the last of the commercial break. The unit needs a true fast forward button.4. The deleted file function does not work on short files. The preview function plays the file over and over, taking precedent over the question/answer required to delete a recording. The short file can only be deleted on the storage device by connecting it directly to a computer.5. The provided software for a Windows PC left one of my other apps without the ability to show photos. I removed the Clone Alliance software.Still trying out other features of the unit. Undecided about keeping the unit.

I originally purchased the ClonerAlliance ViewPro. Great device except that I found the H.264 compression had a hard time with certain types of image content. I returned that and purchased the UHD Pro hoping that the H.265 compression would be an improvement. I was not disappointed; it looks fantastic! A huge improvement over H.264.However, I noticed that I would get an artifact that occurred maybe twice per hour where the image would turn almost white for a few frames and then would be fine for a while. I ran tests where I watched the video as it was recording and saw nothing, but saw the problem on playback both from the UHD Pro and my computer. So, the problem is in the file. I tried recording from both my Roku Express and my Panasonic DVD player, but both sources exhibited the problem.I then contacted the ClonerAlliance customer service (Julia was very nice) and tried a few things, but nothing worked. So, thinking I had a defective unit, I returned it to Amazon for a replacement. I received the replacement, but found that it did the same thing.So, I'm more than just a little bit confused. This product gets great reviews both here and on YouTube, with no mention of what I've encountered. I asked Julia if they have been able to reproduce the problem and they say they haven't. I have a little more time left to return it for a refund, but there doesn't seem to be an alternative product that does what this thing does. It's a shame, as it is absolutely great otherwise.UPDATE: I returned the second one of these and purchased an AVerMedia EZRecorder 330G. It also records in H.265 and hasn't had the glitching problem I saw in the UHD Pro. The interface on the EZRecorder isn't as easy to get around on as the UHD Pro, but you can get used to it.

Idk what the deal is with these but they are not good. I thought maybe I got a defective device but I've tried 3 different ones. The Box Pro, View Pro, and now the UHD Pro. The first two had the same issue where every 5-10 seconds or soAl any recorded video would have so much grain and noise that it was annoying. It would only last a few seconds but it happened so frequently that it became unwatchable. Imagine having a clear picture and then every 5 seconds the picture would go blurry for a few seconds. After returning those over the past years I finally decided to try again with this one. To my surprise that noise/grainy picture problem was not happening...BUT this one now has the problem where 30 seconds into any recording the picture starts freezing with severe pixelation and audio problems. I just don't get it. I've tried different sources, different connectors and no solution. I also noticed that when I stop recording, there's always 40+ seconds at the end that are never recorded. Clearly these devices are just not good. I wanted to chalk it up as defective units but there's no way I've tried 3 different models and they all have problems
