Pearl-2 User Guide Start and stop an NDI stream
where name is the unique alphanumeric name you assign the stream and PLT is the three-digit prefix that
identifies this as a Pearl-2 system.
Pearl-2 shows up as an NDI resource to other NDI resources on the network as soon as you start an
NDI stream. All NDI devices on the same network as Pearl-2 can access the unicast stream.
Important considerations
l
Pearl-2 can unicast up to two 1920×1080 NDI streams simultaneously. However, NDI allows receivers
to request a lower quality stream. If that happens, Pearl-2 will send two streams: one at the original
resolution and a second one at the lower resolution. This has an impact on the CPU performance of
Pearl-2, see
Optimum CPU performance .
l
We recommend having at least 125 Mbps Ethernet for a single 1920×1080 30 fps stream using NDI,
and between 8 and 20 Mbps for a single 1920×1080 30 fps stream using NDI|HX.
To stream using NDI:
1. Login to the Admin panel as admin , see Connect to the Admin panel .
2. From the Channels menu, select a channel and click Streaming . The Streaming configuration page
opens.
3. Click New stream and choose NDI Streaming . The new stream is created using the default name
Stream 1 .
4. Click the stream name to see the stream settings.
5. (Optional) Uncheck Single touch control if you don't want this stream to be started and stopped
using One Touch streaming and recording control . This is enabled by default.
6. Enter a unique name for Pearl-2 in the Name field. The name you enter appears in parenthesis after
the serial number of Pearl-2 and the three-letter prefix. For example: PLTTSG999901 ( name )
7. (Optional) Enter a Group to assign the stream to a specific NDI group (if applicable).
