Use an NDI feed as a row's video/audio source. Pulsar finds NDI sources on your machine and across the network; pick one by hand or auto-bind by name.
How to open it
- Set the row's type to NDI.
- Click the row's source tag box — the wide button showing the current NDI source name (or
Auto-selecting...).
- The Row X Stream Settings window opens.
Stop the row's output(s) before you change the source — the tag box is locked while a row is streaming.
Pick a feed manually
- Open the settings window and leave Selection Mode on Manual select.
- Wait for the list to populate, then pick your feed:
- Local Sources (monitor icon) are on this machine.
- Network Sources (globe icon) are on other machines.
- If your feed isn't listed, click Refresh Sources.
- Click Apply.
The list appears after the first discovery scan, so it may be blank for a second when you open the window. It refreshes itself every 10 seconds.
Auto-select a feed by name
Auto mode binds to whichever source matches a search term and re-binds if that source drops and returns — handy for feeds that reconnect, like an Avid or playout system.
- Open the settings window and set Selection Mode to Auto select.
- Type a distinctive part of the name into Search Term (e.g.
AVID). Matching is case-insensitive.
- Pick a Match Mode: Contains (name includes your term) or Exact Match (name equals it).
- Check the Auto-selected: readout shows the feed you expect, then click Apply.
If the readout stays on Auto-selecting..., nothing matches your term — broaden it or switch back to Manual select.
