Unofficial Guide to NDI Course - Video #2 - What is IP Video?

IP Video is a term used to describe video that is distributed on an IP network. The “IP” in IP Video stands for Internet Protocol, which is a set of standards for communicating over computer networks. IP Video devices can include cameras, hardware or software switchers, graphic workstations, and displays. NDI® is just one type of IP Video that has become a popular standard for live streaming and video production.

NDI® was first released in 2015, at the International Broadcast Conference (IBC) show in Amsterdam. Dr. Andrew Cross had been working on IP video technology as the chief technology officer at NewTek prior to the release. The predecessor to NDI® was called AirSend and it was used primarily as an IP video tool for NewTek TriCaster users. In 2015, Dr. Cross became the CEO of NewTek which marked a transition for the company toward the future of IP video. While other IP video standards existed at the time including SMPTE 2022 which was released in 2007, Dr. Cross and his team at NewTek were determined to create a new standard for IP video.

The very first demonstrations of NDI® were shown on a NewTek TriCaster. NewTek, which is now owned and operated by the Vizrt Group, is a Texas-based video production company that was started in 1985. The TriCaster is NewTek’s flagship product, which offers live video switching, broadcast graphics, virtual sets, audio mixing, recording and much more. Ten years after its first release in 2005, the TriCaster became the world’s first natively integrated NDI® video switcher.
