Dual Multiview Modes
iCAST 10NDI provides an intuitive preview of your output sources. You can view them either horizontally or vertically (a new technology for viewing videos on mobile devices) and preview these mode changes on a Multiview screen.

Multiple PGM Modes
In addition to displaying a full screen view of the program out video, you can also stream the four input videos live
to your audience.

The iCAST 10NDI offers five Multiview layouts to allow you to show your input videos all at the same time. The videos can be streamed to all corners of the world and your audience can, with zero delay, participate in your events using a receiver/decoder, personal mobile device, or a computer.

Stream OUT
You no longer need multiple devices to stream your video to multiple platforms. This is now achievable with one iCAST 10NDI.

iCAST 10NDI supports NDI | HX input and output. Another alternative to broadcast a quality low latency video transmission.

Decode up to 3 NDI channels
One Ethernet Cable with NDI® | HX Technology

There is no need for multiple cables and complicated setup. Single-wire concept helps you to decode video and audio over only one Ethernet cable for live video switching.

Vertical streaming appropriate for video playback on social media
Of all videos streamed, up to 50% of the videos are viewed on mobile devices and 94% of the mobile users hold the phone vertically to view the video. iCAST 10NDI provides vertical streaming which can be generated with only a few basic settings.

Supporting SRT protocol so that iCAST 10NDI works well even when you have low bandwidth.
Video latency often results when there is insufficient network bandwidth. iCAST-10 supports SRT protocol which mitigates packet loss when the network becomes unstable. Sometimes RTMP may give you stuttering viewing experience but SRT will solve your problem.

Add dvCloud to enhance your streaming experience
dvCloud, a paid service, is a professional streaming platform developed by Datavideo. Once you've logged in, you can manage all the streaming channels that you have created. You can stream your video to at most 25 platforms at the same time without any time limit while backing up the video on the cloud automatically for future downloads. iCAST 10NDI, SRT and dvCloud form a low latency, secure and reliable streaming workflow.

Recording: Easy-to-read LED indicator
A protruding frame like LED indicator allows you to easily see its color. A red indicator means that the video is being recorded and a green indicator appears when the record function enters standby mode.

The 2" LCD screen on iCAST 10NDI allows you to view the record status of all video channels.

ISO recording of five video inputs and one main program output
ISO recording refers to the ability to create isolated recordings of your five camera inputs and one PGM output for video backup and adding visual effects during post production. ISO recording allows you to save your data locally or on a file server.

H.264 Encoding to back up HD videos
A built-in professional recorder records using H.264 video encoding with configurable resolution, frame rate, video bitrate, etc.

Recording Resolution
Supports up to Full HD 1080p50/60 broadcast record quality with a low file size so it is often used for long time recording. Even with a high data compression ratio, fine details of the image can still be retained as well as high recoverable color information.

Multi-Channel Audio Mixing and Audio-to-Video Synchronization
In addition to embedded audio, we have also provided input ports for external audio such as XLR port for connecting microphones, and RCA terminals for audio players.

The Web audio, the most popular audio source, is another external audio source. You can easily perform professional audio mixing with iCAST 10NDI and at the same time switch between AES and EBU modes so that your output audio will always be compatible with various audio systems in different countries without issues such as unstable audio volume and the audio and video out of sync error.

A Variety of Audio Input and Output Ports
XLR and stereo RCA ports for external analog audio and a 3.5 mm headphone jack for audio monitoring.

Audio Delay
iCAST 10NDI is capable of independently delaying each audio channel by adjusting the delay time in order to eliminate the audio and video out of sync error.

Character Generation
iCAST 10NDI allows you to add graphic elements such as logos, titles, text, and images to any input video channels or the program output. You can add course chapters text or workflow diagram images to your program.

Custom real-time captions and subtitles for your programs such as news broadcast.
