NDI launches Nvidia-optimized Screen Capture HX for content creators

Vizrt Group’s NDI launched a new application today for PC that may eliminate the need for a capture card for high-quality video content. NDI Screen Capture HX is available now, and it uses Nvidia’s GPU compression tech to send production-level video over a network. NDI says Screen Capture HX supports 4K at 120 frames per second and beyond.

This solution eliminates the need for a capture card that takes in a direct video connection from the source PC. Instead, NDI Screen Capture HX sends the video over ethernet or even Wi-Fi. The end result is a simpler solution, but also one that is potentially more powerful. For example, creators could have a gaming PC in the room with them, and then have the streaming PC running somewhere else in their home or studio.
