C500: C500 Mk1 YCC 10-bit 120 fps setup

Just like that the title says...I can't seem to figure this out. I can get 4K RAW @ both 60fps and 120 fps to work, but can't get 120fps for the YCC 10-bit video.

Camera is set to 10-bit YCC, 59.94 (defaults to this), slow & fast motion on, set to 120 fps...
Odyssey set to 2K/HD 4:2:2 to ProRes. Once I plug in the second SDI cable, the screen goes haywire.

CV and C500 manuals don't seem to have the info as most versions were released before the firmware update that enabled 120fps.

Thanks~
 
Whoops. Answered my own question. Doesn't support it, eh?
Which recorders do support it? Since there is a menu option going up to 120 fps.
 
Cool. Thanks, guys.
Yes, both HRAW and 4K1K work fine, but is there a way to properly monitor the 4K1K? The Odyssey won't properly desqueeze the image. The recored image is fine, but not the preview.
 
It's been a good long while but I don't think it's "squeezed". If I recall correctly it's just a 4096 x 1080 slice out of the center of the sensor. So the 7Q is just simply showing you the "half raw" image and there's no distortion to correct for. Sort of like super duper Techniscope wide screen. You can just slice the left and right off to get yourself a 1920 x 1080 sequence in post.
 
Ah yeah. I guess that's what I meant. The video is fine on the computer, but I was just wondering if there was a way to see it in the 4096x1080 ratio correctly on the Odyssey. Just to make it easier to frame things. But that's a good point about just lopping off either side if I'm just looking for a 120p 1080p image. It's a little dat intensive for such an endeavor (especially as I had an NX1 for a couple years!), but could be worth it here and there.
