When using NDI Scan Converter as a video streaming source with Playback, it’s important to make sure that the audio is muted in the NDI application. (Settings > Mute Audio)
Since NDI is being used just as video source, it’s important to mute the audio from the app, otherwise, Playback will receive the system audio redundantly (x2) which may cause feedback issues.
This is important for those that might be using Adobe Premier, Final Cut, etc.
Using NDI with Wifi
When using NDI, we strongly recommend avoiding Wi-Fi. NDI has known compatibility issues with Wi-Fi routers that can cause stalling or dropped frames. For accurate results, capture and playback should be performed locally on the same machine running the NDI source. Using two computers connected only by Wi-Fi is not supported and may result in skipped frames or video stalls within Remoto.
If you need to capture from a different computer, we recommend supporting NDI traffic on a dedicated VLAN or subnet to ensure stability and performance.
