NDI HX(2)
Posted: Wed Dec 22, 2021 21:28
Hi!
I'm using NDI quite a lot together with Resolume. For years I've been waiting for the implementations of NDI HX (for sending out of Arena). In the manual it says that it's on the Todo list, but there hasn't been any updates for a long time. I think that NDI HX is a great way to get out a lot of feeds with already available hardware (the NIC of the machine you are running Resolume on).
Of course there is still the need of a decoder at the end, but this could either be a hardware interface or a small computer with NDI monitor running on it. So I see a lot of potential here for projects where image quality may not be the number 1 priority, as well as getting out a lot of different feeds while keeping the hardware costs pretty low.
With the current full NDI implementation, the bandwidth of a 1GBit network is pretty soon very limiting, and 2.5GBit and 10GBit network infrastructure is still pretty expensive.
I'm wondering what others think about it and how high the priority is within the Resolume development team.
Of course I would love to see the NDI HX(2) implementation been done pretty soon.
Greetings,
Martin
