Note:
a. The license key will be sent via email after purchase.
b. An NDI license key is tied to only one OBSBOT Tail series device.
c. Click here to explore our instructions for using NDI with OBSBOT Tail Air.
d. As OBSBOT Tail does not support NDI, the above-mentioned OBSBOT Tail series cameras don't include OBSBOT Tail.
Yes, NDI is versatile and can transmit metadata, control signals, and other ancillary data along with video and audio streams.
You have the flexibility to choose either wired or wireless based on your needs. For enhanced stability in less-than-ideal network conditions, we recommend using a wired NDI connection. Tail 2 features a built-in Ethernet port for direct wired connection, while Tail Air requires a USB-C to Ethernet adapter for wired NDI connection.
OBSBOT Tail Air doesn't support simultaneous output of NDI and HDMI video signals.
No. A single NDI license key is tied to one OBSBOT device (either Tail 2 or Tail Air).
Both OBSBOT Tail 2 and Tail Air support NDI|HX, NDI|HX2 and NDI|HX3.
There is no need for additional purchase required for NDI connection after you purchased the UVC to NDI Adapter.
Yes, it includes a Micro SD slot that supports a memory card for recording real-time video from your webcam. The recommended type is a Micro SD Card (up to 512GB) -exFAT (recommended) / FAT32. A U3 card with a minimum write speed of 30MB/S is also recommended.
Remote operability is enabled via a USB-A 2.0 port, compatible with OBSBOT Tiny Smart Remote 2 and OBSBOT Meet Remote Control.
Indeed, the UVC to NDI Adapter supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) connection. When a PoE connection is available, it can power the adapter, eliminating the need for an external power source.
Without PoE, the UVC to NDI Adapter can be powered via an external power supply with the included cable. It accepts a USB-C input from 5V to 20V and is PD 3.0 compatible. The power source, whether external or PoE, won't affect the adapter's performance and depends on your preference and setup.
The adapter facilitates resolutions up to 4K, including 3840 x 2160, 2560 x 1440, and 1920 x 1080, at various frame rates.
OBSBOT Tail 2 and Tail Air require an NDI license key for NDI functionality. For OBSBOT webcam series (including Tiny 2, Tiny 4K, etc.), users can enable NDI by simply using the OBSBOT UVC to NDI Adapter, with no additional license required. Additionally, OBSBOT Talent supports NDI protocol for video streaming and remote control of connected OBSBOT devices.
