When an NDI source joins a network, it automatically announces itself through a multicast protocol known as mDNS, and can be seen by other NDI devices or applications on the same network and subnet without entering an IP address. NDI stands for “Network Device Interface,” and it is an IP streaming video protocol that was developed by NewTek to simplify sharing video, audio and graphics sources across a network. MIDI (short for Musical Instrument Digital Interface) control surfaces are USB-connected devices that enable tactile control of specific functions in Wirecast.ĭepending on the device, controllable functions may include the ability to select shots, take shots live, set transitions, adjust audio mixer volumes and set audio channel pan.

Wirecast controller drivers#
DirectShow (Windows) and AV Foundation (Mac) drivers make connections to the multimedia framework their particular operating system uses to handle video-related tasks. UVC devices use the universal driver found within both Mac and Windows operating systems.

Devices using these drivers should work with Wirecast unless there are problems with the manufacturer’s driver. This adds to potential for issues to occur and potentially introduce inefficiencies.

Note: Telestream Support is unable to officially support any of the following capture cards.
