BirdDog Central Pro 2.0 NDI Routing Software
Central Pro 2.0 is the routing layer for an NDI network that has outgrown a single switcher. It runs on one Windows machine and is driven from a browser on any device on the network, so a technician can re-patch a receiver from a tablet in the room rather than walking back to a rack. Receivers group intelligently, routes change in real time, and the software is built to hold thousands of sources.
The Pro licence adds single sign-on and a media playback engine, so stored clips can be pushed to any NDI receiver alongside live feeds. It talks to any BirdDog NDI encoder or decoder and is a one-time purchase with no renewal or subscription. BirdDog recommends an Intel Core i5 or better and a touch-enabled device. Delivered as a software licence.
