Description

NDI viewer is a must-have app for everyone using a NDI-enabled camera. This app allows you to view in real-time a NDI video/audio stream, and control the camera using PTZ controls.

Can’t connect to my camera

It automatically assumes the port is zero, and it won’t let me change it. This prevents the app from connecting to the camera. Seems like NDI started working on this app, and then stopped before they were done.

It works, sort of

So, it can’t auto-discover since my cameras are hardwired and my phone is on WiFi. If I enter the camera IP address it connects.

I can see the a video stream. But, it won’t control the PTZ, except for Home and presets 1-3. No other preset buttons work and the arrows don’t work. There are no zoom buttons either.

Pretty sad that the company that maintains the NDI spec can’t write software to control cameras which follow that spec.

Not NDI, or very outdated protocol support

I don’t know what protocol this uses, but it isn’t NDI (or if it is, it is limited to the old-style, pre-HX NDI). It can’t see any of the NDI sources on my network, and when I point to my TBS 2605, it shows a 404 error page like it is trying to hit the web server on the device instead of talking to it via the NDI protocol.
