Using NewTek Connect Pro to Monitor NDI Sources from Other Devices

By Jim Bask 0 Comment January 24, 2017

NewTek Connect Pro can serve a variety of video sources as NDI streams for a video production IP workflow, plus give you quality controls for the video streams it provides. The application’s capabilities go beyond the system on which it is installed, however. NewTek Connect Pro can also help you turn any available system or device in your production suite into a multiviewer on which you can monitor any of the available NDI streams present on the network. Yes, you heard that right – you can leverage NewTek Connect Pro on one system from other systems or devices, to make them useful in your production workflow. This is because the application includes NDI Connect Webserver, which can be accessed by other systems and devices on the network. You can then use these to monitor NDI streams from any source on the network. This is not limited to the NDI streams that NewTek Connect Pro is serving.

Replacing traditional SDI systems with IP technology is something that promises to save big pots of gold, although it principally applies to those of us who are involved in big live studio installs or OB work. It’s a tool of the live or as-live production world, which is understandably interested in building video infrastructure out of commodity-priced information technology hardware, as opposed to the industry-specific SDI routers and switchers that are normally used.

NewTek TriCaster 460 and NDI in the classroom: Election Day TV Coverage

By Jim Bask 0 Comment January 6, 2017

Election Day 2016. Polling places jammed with harried voters, anxiously awaiting the opportunity to exercise their rights as citizens and vote for the candidate of their choice. For broadcasters, Election Day can be its own special kind of hell, testing resources, testing nerves, requiring everyone on the team to think on their feet and prepare for any eventuality. Election Day can make or break a young reporter’s career, something Dylan Cleland knows all too well as he stands before the camera grasping his microphone with an unsteady hand.
