Re: NDI vs Capture Cards which one to use

Just to update everyone, I decided to try the NDI route first. As of now this would get me up & running to handle powerpoint presentations & similar content. I downloaded NDI on both laptops. I bought a gigabit switch (D-Link 5-Port EasySmart Gigabit Ethernet Switch (DGS-1100-05)) I tested t...

Re: NDI vs Capture Cards which one to use

Yeah, you can pretty much do what you hope here. There’s a good post on Facebook recently where somebody is using a touchscreen laptop running Arena as a master “switcher” for a large conference.

Re: NDI vs Capture Cards which one to use

Re: NDI vs Capture Cards which one to use

Thanks for the info he2neg. For me I think I would have to use Resolume to be able to scale my output depending on my video wall size and if it is a standard size or not. I thought there were some capture cards that could receive SDI signals and HDMI at the same time? or is it just 1 or the other? I...
