NewTek workflow expert Kane Peterson takes you through the steps to set up a third party CG application to connect over the network to the TriCaster via NewTek NDI ®. Using open source CasparCG, Kane takes you through installing and configuring the application, then acquiring, installing and configuring the NewTek NDI applications that will make this work. The techniques shown can be applied to a wide range of commercial and non-commercial production tools.
Once CasparCG or any other third party production tool is set up to serve output to the network as NDI this way, TriCaster and 3Play are able to connect using the network input menu controls. In addition, any third party products that have added support for NDI are also able to connect. Note: This video tutorial is provided solely as an example implementation of NDI technology with a third party production tool, and is not intended as a recommendation or endorsement of any particular product or tool.
