NewTek workflow expert Kane Peterson takes you through the steps to set up a third party CG application to connect over the network to the TriCaster via NewTek NDI ®. Using open source CasparCG, Kane takes you through installing and configuring the application, then acquiring, installing and configuring the NewTek NDI applications that will make this work. The techniques shown can be applied to a wide range of commercial and non-commercial production tools. Once CasparCG or any other third party production tool is set up to serve output to the network as NDI this way, TriCaster and 3Play are able to connect using the network input menu controls. In addition, any third party products that have added support for NDI are also able to connect. Note: This video tutorial is provided solely as an example implementation of NDI technology with a third party production tool, and is not intended as a recommendation or endorsement of any particular product or tool. This video acknowledges and expands on the information in the YouTube video: In that video, CasparCG is connected with vMIX 17 with integrated NDI support.

The links you’ll need: ** Install NewTek NDI Tools Pack and AirSend update ** CasparCG Client & Server CasparCG Frontend There is some information not covered in the CasparCG-to-vMix video that you will need to make things work. You can get that information in the NewTek video, or for your convenience, here it is in text form: • Copy the ‘CasparCG_FrontEnd’ and ‘CasparCG_FrontEnd.config’ files into the same folder as CasparCG Server, then open the ‘CasparCG_FrontEnd.config’ file in Notepad. • In the XML data, edit the ‘Value’ key under the ‘ServerPath’ and add the correct path to ‘casparcg.exe’. For example: C:UsersWesleyCrusherDownloadsCasparCGCasparCG Server 2.0.7CasparCG ServerServercasparcg.exe • Save the file and then run ‘CasparCG_FrontEnd’. It will correctly update the config file that CasparCG uses and everything will work correctly. Read more Learn more about.

All configuration of CasparCG Server is done in the text file caspar.config which can be edited in any text editor. If you want to change the location (for example to a faster disk) you just change the paths in the casparcg.config file. Use the character in front of any special character, so that C: CasparCG is written C: CasparCG At the bottom of the casparcg.config file you will find comments which document additional settings. Paths Configuration To tell the CasparCG Server where to look for media files, change the following paths in the configuration file. You can change these paths to any path you'd like, for example a fixed path such as L: CasparCG or my-server or even a relative path (calculated from the Server's EXE file) such as Media sub-folder Please note: All paths should be terminated with a backslash (meaning that it should be entered as ). We recommend that you place your media and templates files locally, on a fast disk that is not the same disk used for the operating system. • log-path: Path to folder with all logs.

• media-path: CasparCG Server will look in the media folder (and its sub folders) for videos, audio and images files. • template-path: CasparCG Server will look in the templates folder (and its subfolders) for Flash templates. • template-host: Path to Flash TemplateHost files.

• data-path: Path to folder where 'data' is read from and written to. CasparCG Server will look in the data folder (and its sub folders) for data loaded by Flash templates.
