Our tools suite is free to download and has been designed to introduce anyone, from end users to professional installers, to the world of NDI connectivity. For more advanced users, it can be harnessed to supercharge your NDI workflow.
Our tools range from intuitive and straightforward to use by anyone experimenting with NDI for the first time to powerful, highly-customizable tools that can be applied in the most professional settings and workflows.
NDI Bridge delivers local convenience on a global scale, enabling users to securely share NDI sources between remote sites anywhere in the world while reducing complexity, cost, and latency. This powerful tool also allows you to manage alpha channels, KVM, PTZs, tally, metadata, and more.
Whether you need to transmit video over VLC, edit live-to-air with renderless playback on Adobe Premiere, or output real-time audio and video frame buffer from Final Cut Pro, our suite provides easy-to-use plugins that integrate NDI into the apps and software you already use.

– Compatible with current and previous versions of VLC Media Player for Windows
– Makes content accessible without transfer, transcoding, or direct connectivity
– Supports encoding of multiple instances of VLC Media Player simultaneously
– Virtual PTZ control for pan and zoom control around VLC output

Send a reference signal to other NDI devices on your network to confirm connectivity and enable audio and video calibration.
A wide collection of test patterns, including color bars, individual colors and IRE fields.
Selectable audio tones to ensure accurate color properties and appropriate sound levels, ranging from +4dBU (+0dBVU) to -40dBU (-48dBVU).
Expert users employ NDI Analysis to examine the performance of NDI network connections and debug problems in any workflow.
Access complex statistics such as detailed information about the sources available on a network and their connection types, which is helpful for debugging systems or troubleshooting problems.
Locate NDI sources on the local network using a special version of NDI that receives all data from a source and provides information and diagnosis.
Generate a CSV file that contains information about the timing of every frame captured, useful for further analysis.
NDI Analysis does not decode any data, meaning the CPU performance of the host machine has little impact on the results shown. The tool is designed to measure stream details as they might be received in an ideal receiving instance, where only upstream CPU performance, network, network infrastructure, and machine network performance affect the results.
Incredibly powerful and versatile, NDI Studio Monitor runs on any compatible laptop or workstation, and allows you to see any available NDI channel in real time, arrange multiple NDI channels for live monitoring, and deploy instances for a range of professional signage and display applications.
