WHAT IS NDI AND NDI|HX2?

Network Device Interface (NDI) is a high performance AV over IP standard that allows anyone to use real time, ultra low latency video on existing IP video networks. The NDI open protocol enables professionals to share video through a local area network (LAN) with video-compatible devices. With a single ethernet cable connection, professionals can merge all stages of production from start to finish. That way, all production tasks and processes will be united, so accomplishing a creative vision will be simple. With the NDI 5.5 tool-kit, users will also be able to connect any audio device as an NDI source with NDI’s Audio Direct tool. This adds audio over IP to NDI’s revolution.

NDI|HX2 is an updated version of NDI|HX1. NDI|HX2 also compresses the bandwidth, but is more efficient than NDI|HX1. With compressed bandwidth, users can have more devices on their LAN without running into latency issues. NDI|HX2 provides good quality output, low bandwidth, and medium latency. The main difference compared to NDI|HX1 is that HX2 is truly a native NDI stream - all the way from the source device to the destination. This means it is a 'cleaner' implementation than HX1 and can potentially be more reliable, provide lower latency, and give a more flexible connection that shares all the usual features of NDI. 

NDI Toolkit

The NDI toolkit provides a collection of tools and plugins for NDI (Network Device Interface) video and audio streams. It includes tools for monitoring and displaying NDI video sources, sending test patterns for connectivity and calibration, analyzing network performance, routing NDI sources, integrating audio through plugins, facilitating secure remote connections, extending NDI streams beyond local networks, and offering a comprehensive suite for setup, testing, and management of NDI streams in diverse workflows.
