Introduction:The NewTek ™ NDI (Network Device Interface) is a open source IP protocol for sending and receiving ultra low latency, high defi-nition video and audio sources for live broadcasts. The protocol has been pioneered by Dr. Andrew Cross, NewTek’s president and CTO, to become a new standard for the industry.

What does this mean for NewTek and the popular TriCasters?

TriCasters will now have the capability of working with any NDI compatible device and provide low-latency HD video functional-ity. Device manufactures can now implement the NDI open source code for seemless integration into a NewTek TriCaster broadcast workflow.

What does this mean for PTZOptics?

PTZOptics does have plans to integrate with the NewTek NDI in the future. Currently we have no set release date but due to popu-lar demand we have put together this “NewTek/vMix NDI Playbook“ to promote the use of NDI with our products.

What does this mean for the live streaming market

The live streaming market is set to grow signifigantly in the coming years. Open source technology is a proven way to spur growth and market engagement.

*Some of the technology mentioned is still in Beta. Check with NewTek for latest release notes...

Introduction to NewTek & PTZOptics



NewTek NDI Apps

NewTek “NDI Apps“ extend the NDI protocol functionality for professional and novice users in the same way a iPhone app extends the functionality of a smartphone. Each application helps users extend the functionality of their NewTek TriCaster. If there is some-thing you want to do with live streaming, NewTek most likely has a app that can help you accomplish that goal!

Broadcast Use Case - NewTek NDI


HD-SDI

Overview:The NewTek NDI allows for ultra low latency connections between multiple systems. Therefore various systems can now share re-sources over a local area network. A simple Windows laptop can now share video and audio sources with a NewTek TriCaster 460 allowing flexible deployments for any budget. In the below example we are showing a NewTek TriCaster with various HD-SDI PTZOptics cameras connected but also USB cameras being pulled in as “NDI Webcams“ from a laptop. The Tricaster is then con-nected via NDI to another laptop that can record and/or control the system remotely with the IsoCorder and Control Apps.

Tip - Sharing ResourcesNow multiple operators can gain access to broad-cast assets across a LAN “Local Area Network“ with ultra-low latency. Consider setting up a line of communication for instant messaging, audio conferencing or remote computer control. With remote computer control the main broadcast stu-dio has additional flexibility...

Educational Use Case - NewTek NDI

Educational Use Case - Distance Learning - School Announcement ShowsIn the educational space the NewTek NDI allows educational organizations to affordably connect multiple classrooms to a large school broadcast or announcement show. Each classroom / teacher can stream & record lessons independent to the main broad-cast studio using the NDI Connect and/or Remote Control Apps. On the other hand, the main broadcast studio can use video & audio feeds for a school wide daily announcements easily incorporating video feeds over the network.

Main Broadcast Studio

Tip - Live Streaming Account SetupWith a setup like this your main broadcast studio can easily invite a classroom to be part of a campus wide school announcement. On the other hand each class-room can also independently schedule live streams for distance learning and/or on-demand learning. Consider helping each teacher set up their indepen-dent live streaming account on YouTube. You can even help develop the network of teacher accounts with association to the main studio. Perhaps teachers already have access to video on-demand solutions such as Blackboard, Kaltura or Moodle.

House of Worship Use Case - NewTek NDI

HD-SDI

House of WorshipThe NewTek NDI allows for ultra low latency connections between multiple systems. In the example below we are demonstrating how one central house of worship can incorporate video feeds from various houses of worhip on the same network. Because the NewTek NDI provides bi-direction video and audio, each church can now share video/audio resources. This is ideal for sharing views from multiple churches, presentaions, audiences and more. Sattelite churches can even localize content with branding and control for local recordings.

Main Broadcast Studio

Tip - Connecting TogetherIf you are working with a outreach pro-gram or satellite church and you want to connect their video/audio to live stream consider setting up a Skype Call. Read our “Bandwidth Optimization Tips“ to ensure the best possible connection from your main broadcast studio to your satel-lite locations.

Sales & Marketing Use Case- NewTek NDI

Online Webcasting / Live Shows / On-Demand Video ProductionHigh quality video content has never been more important for marketing today. Using live production tools can help marketers stay up to speed with quick and easy video creation live. By creating content live video marketers are able to cut down on time spent in post production and focus on what really matters. A video that receives 7,500 views/day = 46.6 hyper efficient sales pro-fessionals spreading your message everyday (salesforce.com). In this diagram we demonstrate how easy remote management can be.


*Optional Streaming to CDN “Content Delivery Network“



Tip - “Stinger Effect“Try breaking up your content into 3 main sections. Intro, middle and outro. Per-haps you can use different camera presets or virtual sets to make these sections visually distinct. In-between each sec-tion you can use transitions or a “stinger effect“ to professionally switch between scenes.
