This is a configuration option found in the casparcg.config file, the syntax is documented here: https://github.com/CasparCG/server/blob/master/src/shell/casparcg.config#L106
just keep in mind that you’ve got to use a recent casparcg version.
I’d recommend going for 2.3.0 LTS RC - https://github.com/CasparCG/server/releases/tag/v2.3.0-lts-rc
Ok but all the tutorials with NDI require additionall installs of frontend and ndi tools and so on.
I found some more info here.
I am not much of a production expert my job was to develop html templates and scripts and the software to call them. If I would be able to configure ndi output, how the production is able to get the signal? Connecting to caspar IP?
“play 1-0 amb loop” (plays the file amb.mp4 in loop)
“play 1-1 [HTML] templatepath” (plays html templates)
“add 1 ndi name xyz” (Creates ndi signal with name xyz that carries channel 1 of CCG )
Hope you have done similar to above .
This NDI source xyz can be viewed from OBS / vMix /Tricaster in NDI sources list / network video list, with CCG PC Name and channel xyz.
To play back NDI created from same or other softwares :
“ndi list” ( Lists all ndi sources available in the network with PC_name and Channel_name, that were created using OBS/VMix/CCG/newtek etc)
“play 2-0 ndi://PC_Name/xyz” ( To play ndi created from ‘PC_Name’ with channel ‘xyz’ ).
I have found it depends on what version of Caspar server you are using.
If you use casparcg server 2.3, get the airsender dll and add a few lines to your server code, you can be up and running very quickly with NDI.
In a thread I got answered the other day, I was provided a link to the latest dll files, and the code to add to the server config, it may help out.
Hi,
I managed to get ndi working.
I have a question, does ndi carries fill and key and if yes, is there some special config?
I am using html templates for graphics.
Yes ndi carries fill and key. There is no special config. And FILL Key work with html templates as well. Keep html templates body background-color transparent.
A few important tips.
Thanks for the info. Very useful.
Do you know any way of setting the “allow fields - true” mode with AMCP?
I have been trying to find some documentation about it but I can’t find anything.
I just need the NDI to be interlaced without touching the config file.
Thanks!
Try this
add 1 ndi name ch1 allow_fields
