Do you actually use Resolume and NDI in a live environment like 90% of the users on this forum? A lot of your posts seem to be pushing for things that Resolume is just not meant for. Pushing Vuo Pro plugins ($120 license btw, not cross platform), comparing Resolume to iPad software (oh look, again, not cross platform) built for a specific purpose.resolumejunkie wrote: ↑Tue Jul 27, 2021 18:04 As far as HX, does encoder qualify factor into your opinion formation process?
The x265 codec looks great! 10-bit HEVC 3840x2160 at 1MB per frame looks phenomenal!
HX is useful anywhere you want a lower bandwidth video stream. Current applications are WiFi and WAN.
That’s a great deal of hostility considering all I did here was respond to someone else’s question with a free solution! Transcoding NDI to NDI HX previously required Sienna ND Processing Engine, starting at $7,000. I was really impressed Newtek included transcoding in NDI 5 Bridge. Felt like sharing. Arvol’s tone was very dismissive. I can’t figure out why. I simply responded to a question with a free solution. Rock n roll people don’t make much sense to this filmmaking-industry person.dirtyjohn_lv wrote: ↑Wed Jul 28, 2021 00:41They paid for the whole package, NDI and Newtek, not just the technologyresolumejunkie wrote: ↑Tue Jul 27, 2021 18:04 If NDI is a fundamentally unreliable technology, then why did Vizrt pay $90m for it?

If you're so knowledgeable on rendering engines, you should have gone ahead and built your own VJ software in the time when everybody was out of work.
Seriously though, there's plenty of us out there that have tried to use stuff like NDI in a live environment, but they way Resolume is built to run on their own custom engine, using their own custom codec - when it comes to all the strobing, flashing, fast video movement and switching, SDI is the better capture solution.
I own Tricasters with both SDI and NDI, and get better frame rates captured in Resolume with SDI than NDI, and this is after years of doing large scale work in large corporate networking environments (15+ years). Hell, AMX is a better solution than NDI most of the time
Instead of trying to get people to change their software to your special case needs, how about finding something that suits your needs or write your own software? There are plenty of solutions out there to try (GrandVJ, Modul8, TouchDesigner, Notch, Disguise, Hippo).
This one actually hurts. What I did was spend $300 of my own money on Vuo Pro to be able to make and give away, for free, a color temperature FFGL plug-in, to another user who requested one. After doing this kind deed, I had my head chewed off by Arvol for doing a good deed: giving something away for free, that required no license whatsoever to use, Seeing my good deed lambasted, I removed the link. I understand you don’t need a color temperature FFGL plug-in. But, to accuse me of “promoting” $120 software, when I was literally giving away a free FFGL plugin is beyond the pale! Like I said, I don’t understand you rock n roll people at all! Try to be nice, and everyone hates you! You guys are not ambassadors for Resolume at all! You run people away from it!dirtyjohn_lv wrote: ↑Wed Jul 28, 2021 00:41 Pushing Vuo Pro plugins ($120 license btw, not cross platform),
So it's ok, for you, a new Resolume user, to spend your own hard earned $300 on a license for 3rd party software and give away plugins for free, but some suggest using the native software built by Resolume (which costs $400) of which you can use the compiled patches for free, and this is an issue for you?resolumejunkie wrote: ↑Wed Jul 28, 2021 04:14 This one actually hurts.
