Selecting NDI Output Interface

Post by jolson »

Our Resolume setup has two different work cards, is there a way to direct Resolume to output NDI on a specific network interface? Right now it is going out the "wrong" interface. I didn't see an option to direct this out a specific interface, any ideas? Thanks!

You need to setup manual metrics in your OS. If your on Apple I wouldn't know how to do this. For windows:

Set your NDI NIC to 1 and your other NIC to 8000. then restart

Thanks for your feedback, however it still is outputting on the wrong NIC. The powershell shows the correct metric, and I even tried the reverse, just in case. I also created a new NDI output... Still going out the wrong interface. Any other thoughts?

Just to add something that could be helpful to mac users, mac os doesn't use metrics to prioritise it assign priorities to interfaces.

So to change it you could go to system preferences-network-click on the three dots on the right- set service order

Or you could use the terminal with the command:
networksetup -listnetworkserviceorder
networksetup -ordernetworkservices

You can also select the priority NIC in NDI Access Manager but I haven't seen that actually do anything...
Last ditch effort would be to disable the non NDI NIC in device manager, open Arena, Then re-enable that NIC.

Why do you have 2 interfaces? Could you try combining them into 1? You can have a Class A and Class C IP range operating on a single NIC:

What are the network addresses of the two nics?
and how does your routing table look like now?

If possible, you can create a virtual network interface to route NDI traffic over the connection of your choice.
