What Does An NDI Encoder Do?

‌The main function of the NDI encoder is to encode and compress the SDI or HDMI video source into an NDI protocol stream, and transmit the video through a wired network or a wireless WiFi network. The NDI encoder supports a variety of video transmission scenarios, including multi-camera live broadcast, outdoor news live broadcast, vertical screen live broadcast, etc., and can achieve ultra-low latency transmission and mutual identification and communication of multiple data streams.
Specific functions and application scenarios of the NDI encoder
‌Low latency transmission: The NDI encoder can achieve ultra-low latency transmission, with an end-to-end latency of about 150 milliseconds, which is suitable for scenarios that require real-time transmission.
‌Multi-camera live broadcast: In multi-camera live broadcast, the NDI encoder can encode and compress the video signals of multiple cameras and transmit them through the NDI protocol stream, which is convenient for the director to switch and edit.
‌Outdoor news live broadcast: The NDI wireless encoder supports wireless WiFi transmission, which is suitable for outdoor news live broadcast and other scenarios that require portability and remote control.
‌Vertical screen live broadcast: The NDI encoder supports vertical screen live broadcast, which is suitable for live broadcast needs on social media and mobile devices.
‌5G Mobile Network‌: Combined with 5G network, NDI encoder can realize the return of field programs, improving the flexibility and efficiency of on-site production‌
