NDI Encode Settings
Bitrate Management
Because you’re sending NDI®
video over your computer
network, you may need to
be mindful of the amount
of bandwidth your video
will consume. By setting
Bitrate Management to NDI®
Managed, the target bitrate will
be set in accordance with the
NDI® standard. This will achieve
an optimum balance between
bandwidth consumption and
video quality. In this mode, the
video bitrate will be around 120- 140 Mbps. If you do opt for Manual management, you may select a bitrate within a
range of 60-360 Mbps. Do this with care, as the actual bitrate may be greater, straining the capacity of the network
and the receiving device, and lower settings may result in reduced image quality.
Video Input Format
Here you can set the frame rate of the camera to match that of your production. All cameras should be set to the
same frame rate.
NDI Group Enable
NDI® supports Grouping which allows you to hide the visibility of video sources to viewers that are not part of the
group. If disabled, the video source is public and viewable by any receiver on your network.
NDI Stream Name
Give the output video stream of the camera a memorable name to make identification easier on NDI® receiving
devices.
NDI Audio
You can choose to embed audio from the audio input connector into the NDI® stream or mute it.
NDI Failover Source
If the selected HDMI source is interrupted for any reason, P200 can automatically switch to a pre-determined
alternative NDI® source. Select an available NDI® source for the failover function from the Available
NDI® Sources
dropdown list. Clicking the REFRESH button will add new sources to the list, whereas clicking Reset will populate
the list with only active NDI® sources. Click the APPLY button to apply your failover source change.
