PLAY Pro

BirdDog PLAY Pro is the Simplest way to put NDI® video on a Display​​​​​​​
 
Whether it’s a camera feed, return feed, confidence monitor, or live video away from the switcher, PLAY Pro gets it there instantly AND reliably.
 
Simply connect PLAY pro, power it with PoE, and plug in a screen.

With NDI KVM support, it’s not only for viewing video — you can interact and stay in control.
