NDI Discovery interfaces with Discovery Server to enable easy visualization and management of all discovered devices and groups, and provide useful monitoring data.
The NDI Discovery Tool allows you to manage Discovery Servers and monitor NDI devices across your network. It displays all registered NDI sources (senders) with details like device name, IP address, and streaming port, and shows all active receivers grouped by hostname to help verify which systems are listening for streams. You can also configure or update the Discovery Server’s IP and port, and quickly check the connection status, making it a valuable tool for setup and troubleshooting in NDI workflows.
