Advanced NDI® features in BirdUI.
BirdUI gives access all the functions of your X120 camera, all within a beautiful and intuitive interface. A browser-based application, it can be accessed from anywhere on the same network as the X120. BirdUI also adds advanced NDI features including:
NDI® Mute.
This function allows for muting of the NDI stream on the network to lower bandwidth congestion and disable access to the cameras output. Perfect for meeting spaces, public spaces, classrooms, and any time some privacy is needed.
NDI® Discovery Server Failover.
In a mission critical workflow, redundancy is key. This function allows multiple NDI Discover Servers to be installed so if the computer running NDI Discover Server is hit with a power outage, possibly caused by a Repulsor blast, then the failover server will take control giving enhanced stability.
