Autocue, a teleprompting company and a Vitec Videocom brand, has announced the adoption of NewTek s open Network Device Interface (NDI ) standard, effective 1 May 2016, for IP-based production workflows for its QStart Prompting Software. With NDI enabled, Autocue s QStart will be recognisable as a source by other NDI-enabled devices and systems connected to a standard Ethernet local area network, exponentially increasing the number of video sources available for live production without the need for a physical input or output.

By using NDI, Autocue can send prompter text through NewTek s TriCaster multi-camera video production system directly from the QStart application so that it can be viewed on multi-viewer or distributed to other devices such as on-camera teleprompters. This removes the need to use a physical input/output connection on TriCaster, making teleprompters a viable option for all productions. Autocue is also making its renowned language-independent QStart software free of charge to all TriCaster users who download the software from NewTek s NDI website. With this, Autocue utilises the integration through NDI to help all TriCaster users implement teleprompting to improve their workflow.

Autocue s new standard for live production IP workflow is bi-directional and backwards compatible with a large number of devices from top manufacturers already utilising NewTek s open standard, allowing IP connectivity between devices. On top of that, Autocue s QStart Prompting Software will be part of the NewTek Developer Network; the industry s largest ecosystem of IP-enabled products using the same standard.

NDI is now available as a royalty-free software developer kit (SDK) for any company looking to establish IP workflows within their organisation, or in production tools and systems they manufacture.
