Output source options include the displays and audio assigned to any of the four primary outputs, but also
any other Switcher source with the exception of M/Es and animated

Buffers

(a

Buffer

holding an animated

source will output a still image, which may

nevertheless ‘still’ be useful for some purposes).

SECTION 15.1

NDI OUTPUT APPLICATIONS

This means you can simply assign one of these outputs to a suitable downstream system or device, and ‘hot

-

punch’ them at will. Downstream NDI

-enabled devices connected to one of these outputs can thus be

effectively re-

configured directly from VMC1’s

Live Desktop

or

Control Surface

, which provides special

support for this feature.

The potential uses of these outputs is nearly unlimited:

•

Supply external NDI monitoring solutions (such as the NDI Studio Monitor application included in
the free NDI Tools Pack).

•

Recorded them anywhere your network runs using NDI IsoCorder.

•

Converted them to SDI for connection to traditional (non-

IP) studio systems, using either NewTek’s

optional NC1 IO systems, or NewTek NDI Connect (and Connect Pro) software and suitable hardware.

Note: Each NC1 IO unit supports up to 4 SDI output channels and a full suite of production tools including per-
channel overlays (which can be still images, animated clips, or even other NDI sources), allowing you to re-
combine and re-brand your video endlessly.
