[FIXED, DOWNLOAD LINK] NDI 4 watcher only 640x360?

jfg

NDI Source>> NDI Syphon >> Isadora give always the correct resolution in Isadora but by a direct connection over the actor NDI 4 with 3 different sources I get only a width of 640. I used as sources:

- iPhone 7 with EpocCam (1280x720) or JustWifiCam (1920x1080)

- New Tek NDI Scan Converter to get e.g the desktop (3840x1200)

I have the last NDI Tools installed.

I also, can't reproduce this issue currently.
I'll try a fresh install now that I have my PC sending a few NDI streams.

I also tried with New Tek NDI Scan Converter grabbing a window from Safari. Works as expected (i.e., is not limited to 640x360.)

Are you sure you have v0.9.8 of the NDI Watcher? Please

1) In Isadora, choose Help > Open Plugin Folder > TroikaTronix Actor Plugins
2) Select the NDI Watcher.izzyplug plugin
3) In the Finder, choose File > Get Info

The version number should be v0.9.8.

Best Wishes,

Are you running NDI Scan Converter on the same computer as Isadora? If not, please try this and see if this makes a difference.

I have this feeling that NDI is forcing the resolution lower if the network is too slow, etc.

I've now tested on EpocCam and it runs at 1280x720 as expected. (Though the frames are quite sporadic coming in over the network.)

I am running NDI Scan Converter on the same computer.

I have tried:

- with another user with basic system on the same computer (MacPro 2012)

- with two different users on my MacBookPro

- erased the NDI 4 Watcher, download from Isadora website a new one and reinstall.

always with the same result.

Looking through preferences files but see nothing strange

I have tried with iPhone/EpocCam>>NDI virtual input >>> Isadora Live Capture>> Video In Watcher and I get the right resolution: 1280x720

@mark

if I use the NDI Virtual Input in the NDI 4 Watcher I get also a 640 resolution

@jfg What resolution do you see if you open the same source in NDI Studio Monitor?

@liminal_andy

I just made a test and recorded the signal from Scan Converter with NDI Studio Monitor and it is the right size, in this case the desktop size 3840x1200. I get the same if I send the signal Scan Converter>>NDI>Syphon>>Syphon simple client.
