BirdDog PLAY Pro 4K NDI Player Overview

Equipped with a next-gen processor, the PLAY Pro from BirdDog is an upgraded 4K NDI player that is smaller and quieter than its predecessor. Play any video on your NDI network with up to UHD 4K (3840 x 2160) resolution at 60 Hz on an HDMI display.

Enclosed in a metal case, the PLAY Pro converts NDI and NDI/HX3 signals to HDMI 2.0, making it ideal for sending signal from camera feeds, return feeds, confidence monitors, or live video away from the switcher. The RJ45 GbE port also supports PoE, which is the main way to power this device, allowing for single-cable installs. A USB-C port is available as another power option when PoE is not an option. Plug in a keyboard and mouse through the two USB-A ports to instantly take control of a remote Mac or PC, allowing for remote operation. The PLAY Pro switches between NDI sources instantly, ensuring no black frames or delays when selecting feeds.

Install Anywhere

Use the included VESA/Multi Mount Kit to securely install the PLAY Pro in any environment. The PLAY Pro is rack mountable and is compatible with VESA 100x100mm and 75x75mm mounts. Install it behind a display, in an AV cabinet, under a des, or anywhere else to seamlessly integrate it into your workflow.

BirdUI

BirdUI is BirdDog’s browser-based application that lets you access the functions and settings the PLAY Pro has to offer. Setup is easy, allowing you to get the most out of your hardware.
