An NDI® Input Channel looks similar to an SDI Input Channel but misses the Video Device related settings, and it has one dedicated NDI® related setting, which will be addressed below.
Allow conversion from different modes and/or frame rates to the above video mode
Generally, a Video Mode has to be selected for an NDI® Channel, as the Video Mode setting defines the output format.
Please note that Capture Presets can change the output format again, if that is the intended behaviour of such a Preset. Normally, a Capture Preset follows the Video Mode setting.
With the “Allow conversion from different modes and/or frame rates to the above video mode” setting, you can ensure that the incoming NDI® stream gets converted to the given Video Mode. This means that, that an incoming NDI® signal in the format of 1080i2997, will be converted to 1080p25 (Video Mode) if this setting is enabled.
When this setting is disabled for a NDI® channel, then you will see a “No Signal” Error Message within Just Control, when the Channel switches to a NDI® Channel, which does not match the actual Video Mode of the Channel.
