3.7.2 NDI|HX Network Audio and Video Encoding Parameters
1) NDI|HX Audio Encoding Parameter Configuration
NDI User Manual
37
NDI | HX only supports audio format AAC.AAC 48000KHz 64kbps is recommended.
2) NDI|HX Video Encoding Parameter Configuration
High bandwidth mode: Main Stream
Low bandwidth mode: Sub Stream
Recommendation for Configuration of Video Encoding Parameters:
1, 1920 * 1080: 4096 kb/s
2, 1280 * 720: 2048 kb/s
3, 640 * 480: 1024 kb/s
3, 640 * 360: 1024 kb/s
4, 320 * 180: 512 kb/s
4, 320 * 240: 512 kb/s
The higher the bit rate, the better the image quality.Self-configuration according to the actual situation.
Instruction:
1. The high and low bandwidth is switched on at the same time, which can be switched by users according to the
actual situation.
2. The frame rate affects the video delay, and the higher the frame rate, the smaller the video delay.
3.The HEVC(H265) format has been supported since NDI4.5, while the previous version only supported the H264
format.
4.When the video frame rate is 60 frames, two streams can be turned on at most at the same time. It is
recommended not to acquire other streams when NDI is turned on, so as to ensure the smooth flow of NDI
video.
5.Video Out is used for SDI and HDMI. Since SDI and HDMI are turned on by default, it is recommended to adjust
the Video Out Format to 720PX with X representing the frame rate.
6.To configure 60FPS for Video frame rate, you need to configure Video Out Format to 1080P60 or 720P60.
NDI User Manual
38
7.The frame rate of the video encoding portion is consistent with or multiples of the video output,for example:
If video encoding frame rate is 25, then the video output configuration should be 1080P25, 1080P50 or 720P25,
720P 50;
If video encoding frame rate is 30,then the video output configuration should be 1080P30 or 720P30;
If video encoding frame rate is 60,then the video output configuration should be 1080P60 or 720P60;
3.7.3 NDI|HX Instruction of vmix
1) vmix23 and later version support NDI|HX
2) Open vmix23 and add the NDI source
3) Turn on low bandwidth mode
4) vmix configuration delay parameter.The number of frames is based on the frame rate.
For example, if the frame rate is 25FPS, then a frame of data is 40ms and the frames are 5, then the network
delay will increase by about 200ms.
5) The control can select Sony VISCA over IP, the address select the camera IP address, and click Connect.

OBS-NDI plug-in reference address：https://github.com/Palakis/obs-ndi/releases/tag/4.7.0
2) OBS adds NDI source
4)Open the audio
3.7.5 Several Problem solving
1) Whether NDI|HX has significant latency in using vmix ?
A: 1.The client configures the cache, causing the latency to increase.
2.Set the frame rate to 60 frames can reduce latency.
NDI User Manual
40
2) NDI|HX can use vmix to print out the picture normally.,while the screen will be black during the use.Can PTZ
be controlled during the process?
A: 1.The computer configuration problem leads to the failure of drawing. Please refer to the minimum
configuration provided by NDI's official website.
2.When vmix obtains the NDI source, NDI|HX will request the key frame. If the key frame acquisition time is
greater than 100ms, it can only be solved by restarting the camera.Therefore, it is recommended not to fetch
other network streams, such as RTSP, RTMP, page preview, etc., when using NDI 60 frames.
3) How long does the NDI|HX delay?
A: The tested average delay is about 130ms, and the lowest delay is about 80ms when NDI|HX’s using
configuration is 1920* 1080 4096kbs 60fps and video output configuration is 720P60.
Test software:NDI Studio Monitor,turn on low latency mode.
4) How does NDI|HX modify network audio and video parameters?
A: Refer to the section of NDI|HX Network Video and Audio Encoding Parameters Configuration.
5) Can NDI|HX search the source but not get the image?
A: Refer to the section of NDI|HX Environment Configuration.
6) Can NDI|HX normally print out pictures with vmix?
A: vmix23and later version can print out pictures normally.
7) Which format does NDI support, NDI|HX or FULL NDI?
A: NDI|HX compression (h264, h265) is supported, while FULL NDI compression is not supported.
The H265 video compression format is supported only with the latest NDI4.5.2

Chroma, Chroma gain. The intensity of the colour, or the extent to which a given colour in any image is free
from white. The less white in a colour, the truer the colour or the greater its saturation. Saturation is the amount of
pigment in a colour, and not the intensity.
●
Gamma:
The light output of a CRT is not linear with respect to the voltage input. The difference between what
you should have and what is actually output is known as gamma.
●Frame: In interlaced video, a frame is one complete image.A video frame is made up of two fields, or two sets of
interlaced lines. In a film, a frame is one still image of a series that makes up a motion image.
●
Genlock:
Allows synchronisation of otherwise video devices. A signal generator provides a signal pulses which
connected devices can reference. Also see Black Burst and Color Burst.
●Blackburst:
The video waveform without the video elements.It includes the vertical sync, horizontal sync, and
the Chroma burst information. Blackburst is used to synchronize video equipment to align the video output.
●ColourBurst: In colour TV systems, a burst of subcarrier frequency located on the back part of the composite video
signal. This serves as a colour synchronizing signal to establish a frequency and phase reference for the Chroma signal.
Colour burst is 3.58 MHz for NTSC and 4.43 MHz for PAL.

●Colour Bars：
A standard test pattern of several basic
colours (white, yellow, cyan, green, magenta, red, blue, and black)
as a reference for system alignment and testing. In NTSC video, the most commonly used colour bars are the SMPTE
standard colour bars. In PAL video, the most commonly used colour bars are eight full field bars. On computer
monitors the most commonly used colour bars are two rows of reversed colour bars
●Seamless Switching: A feature found on many video switchers. This feature causes the switcher to wait until the
vertical interval to switch. This avoids a glitch (temporary scrambling) which often is seen when switching between
sources.
●Scaling: A conversion of a video or computer graphic signal from a starting resolution to a new resolution. Scaling from
one resolution to another is typically done to optimize the signal for input to an image processor, transmission path or
to improve its quality when presented on a particular display.
●
PIP:
Picture-In-Picture. A small image within a larger image created by scaling down one of image to make it smaller.
Other forms of PIP displays include Picture-By-Picture (PBP) and Picture- With-Picture (PWP), which are commonly used
with 16:9 aspect display devices. PBP and PWP image formats require a separate scaler for each video window .
●HDR: is a high dynamic range (HDR) technique used in imaging and photography to reproduce a greater dynamic
range of luminosity than what is possible with standard digital imaging or photographic techniques. The aim is to
present a similar range of luminance to that experienced through the human visual system.
●UHD:
Standing for Ultra High Definition and comprising
4K and 8Ktelevision standards with a 16:9 ratio, UHD follows
the 2K HDTV standard. A UHD 4K display has a physical resolution of3840x2160 which is four times the area and twice
both the widthandheightofaHDTV/FullHD(1920 x1080) video signal.
●EDID: Extended Display Identification Data. EDID is a data structure used to communicate
video display information,
including native resolution and vertical interval refresh rate
requirements, to a source device. The source device will then
output the provided EDID data, ensuring proper video image quality.
