Open the IE browser, enter the IP address on the OLED screen and enter the Web UI home page Default user admin admin name: Password: Method 2: Open the login page through NDI Studio Monitor The first step: Download and install the free NDI tool-NDI Studio Monitor on NewTek'sofficial website.
6. Device Information This page is the NDI® HD mini device information page, which contains the following information: Device running time (since power-on), HDMI source and SDI source of input (or the format of the decoded NDI), CPU temperature. The device information includes: Device name (can display the current codec mode of the device), device serial number, hardware version, firmware version (can be upgraded on the system page with the version update), MAC address (unique and unmodifiable), device IP address (can be Modify at any time on the web page),...
There are two modes for device IP address setting: DHCP and manual. 7.1.1 DHCP mode Automatic mode (DHCP) needs to be used in the link connecting to the router. The router dynamically assigns the IP address tothe device in real time. An IP address will be randomly assigned to the device every time the power is turned on.You can log in to the webpage according to the IP address assigned by the router and modify the corresponding information (if there is no IP address assigned by the router in the link, the default IP of the device is 192.168.8.8).
7.2 NDI discovery server settings NDI discovery server can transfer video stream across network segments. To use this function, you need to use the official websiteof newtek( https://www.ndi.tv/sdk/ Download and install NDI SDK and NDI tools.) Step 1: open NDI discovery service and record the IPv4 address of this computer (for example: 192.168.1.106). Sources represents the number of encoders connected to the server, and listeners represents the number of decoders connected to the server.
NDI defaults to public group. If you want to add a new group, separate it with comma ",". You can also create a separate privacy group, such as science image, so that only the device that also fills in the science image...
8. Encoding settings Encoder setting page can set the output format of video, stream name of video source,aspect ratio of picture, frame rate, code rate,tally light switch, NDI encoder volume and optical transceiver. 8.1 Modify the NDI stream name in the encoding state If the device is used as an encoder, you need to modify the NDI stream name.
8.3 Set frame rate Support 4 kinds of frame rate settings: source frame rate, 1/2 frame rate, 1/3 frame rate, 1/4 frame rate. 8.4 Set bitrate (Bandwidth) The adjustment of bit rate can be reduced to save network bandwidth when the requirement of image quali- ty is not very high 8.5 Set up Tally lights Program and preview are both started, and software with tally (such as vmix) is used to decode the signal...
