MCM9000 allows monitoring of the proxy stream on NDI from version 6.0.5 onwards. This option allows the NDI streams to have lower bitrate and resolution. To configure, please follow the steps below.
Navigate to Source → Scan to scan an NDI source.
For a detailed description of scanning NDI sources please refer to Scan NDI.
The basic scanning URL is “ndi://” - this will detect all the NDI sources that are available to be received from the sender. You can also use “ndi://{{ip_address}}/” or “ndi://{{device_name}}/”. Click on submit to start the scan.
Navigate to Sources → Configuration and search for the NDI source. Double click or edit the NDI source configuration. In the URL field, add ;low-res at the end of the URL as shown below and click on submit.
Adding this additional parameter at the end enables proxy stream (reduces bitrate and resolution).
Navigate to Sources → Statistics, the NDI stream has reduced Program Birate and Resolution as shown below.
The original Program Birate and Resolution when ;low-res is not added to the NDI URL is hown below.
