Description

* Special Offer Price *
NDICam is the original NDI iOS camera built by the world's leading NDI broadcast infrastructure developers - Sienna.
Mature and feature rich, uniquely with both Full NDI and NDI HX3 modes.
The NDI (Network Device Interface) protocol connects to professional vision mixers and other devices, and delivers a high quality, low latency connection. NDICam is compatible with All TriCasters, VMix, Wirecast and hundreds of other professional IP video systems, software and hardware, which support NDI.
- Simple to use - nothing to configure on your iOS device
- Switch between front and rear cameras during broadcast
- Auto Focus, AF Lock and Tap to Focus
- Auto Exposure, AE Lock and Tap to Expose
- Illumination light on/off
- Audio Mute Control
- Manual Naming of NDI Stream source
- 4 quality / performance levels to suit your device and network, plus NDI HX Option
- Pinch to zoom (where zoom is supported)
- Auto-lens mode for multi-lens cameras
- On screen live / preview tally plus optional use of camera flash as talent tally (with red gel cover).
- Option to prevent iOS device sleep
- Select 25FPS or 29.97FPS standard rate.
- Choice of Full NDI or NDI HX3 compression modes (HX2 at 2 to 20 mBit, plus HX3 Ultra)
- Rotation support for Portrait or Landscape Video Modes.
Front and Rear cameras can be selected at the touch of a button and NDICam features a 4 position quality vs frame rate slider to deliver optimum video suited to the quality of your wifi connection and your iPhone's processing performance. Depending on your iOS device, compression mode selected and Wifi network performance NDICam supports up to 1080 full HD resolution.
Control of flashlight, touch to focus, focus lock, pinch to zoom and audio enable are also included. You can even use the phone's torch as a Tally Light, by covering it with a red gel.
Note: Depending on the performance of your iOS device and your WIFI network, you may not see full frame rates when operating at maximum 1080 resolution with a full HD camera. Using HX3 mode will help if the bottleneck is your WIFI network.
Note: NDI is a high bandwidth protocol designed for local area Gigabit networks. In order to see good results you will need a fast, uncontested wifi connection. If you see slow frame rates, try improving the wifi environment, with a better router, less interference, directional antenna or maybe switch to 5GHz if you are on 2.4GHz. .
NB HX3 Ultra will use around 50mBits of bandwidth, so it's lower than full NDI, but still quite high. Use one of the lower bandwidth HX3 modes if your network connection is struggling.
NDICam is also compatible with wired ethernet connections to iOS devices which can help deliver smooth video compared to a poor quality Wifi network. Good results have been seen with lightning to ethernet adaptors.
You can specify an NDI discovery server in the application settings. Note that you will need to restart the app for any changes to take effect. Specifying a discovery server will disable the standard mDNS (Bonjour) advertisement for the NDI Cam source, so your iOS device must be able to reach the discovery server one the network. If you experience problems - delete the Discovery Server entry and restart the app.
NB: NDI HX3 Ultra mode requires a recent NDI compatible receiver.

Potentially great but unknown

This app works, but I can’t say it works well. The promise is there but it fails to deliver.
The phone is an iPhone 7 Plus, and the wifi is ubiquiti and also a usb3 gigabit Ethernet dongle on the USB 3 camera connection kit. Even direct connection to the intel LAN NIC. All connection methods see 115mbps constant in 1080p29.97 NDI mode.
Currently tested with OBS and vmix.
For one thing, it doesn’t work well with audio devices attached to it - irig pro duos for example. This is regardless of whether it outputs NDI or NDI HX. In built Microphones work. In the NDI HX app by NewTek, audio interfaces work fine.
Second it can’t be used for any long periods of time. In NDI mode, although it drops maybe 1 frame a second in any mode (1080, 720) at the start after 3-4 minutes there’s just catastrophic frame drops and the video becomes unusuable.
NDI HX performance is not as good as the NDI HX performance from the NewTek app either.
It’s a shame because otherwise this would have been the ultimate app for low latency, beating out the average capture card.

Works great in with iPad plugged into iMac and receiving through eCamm live

Sooo simple. I installed this app. Plugged iPad into iMac and voila!!
Instantly recognised as an NDI camera. Great being able to change settings and configure the way I wanted . No overlays from camera or as I previously had with other cam apps. A winner

Crashing my OBS desktop app

Bought and installed this app with great hope, but just as I select NDI source on the OBS desktop app it crashes (OBS not NDI). I’m running version 22 of OBS desktop due to old-timey IMac limitations. Was hoping this would make my day.

Useless for windows PCs

You would think setting your iPhone as a webcam source with this app for a Windows PC would be easy.NO. No documentation or clear instructions. Stay away!!!
