  • “This is real low hanging fruit, but I assume you have windows defender and firewall shut down? I've seen that cause stuttering with NDI before.”

  • “What flavor of NDI are you pushing out of those UE-160's ? Is it full bandwith NDI 4k? Multicast only helps you when your going to multiple destinations, so if its simply a bandwith limitation your issue is probably rooted there. NDI full bandwith is a B*tch, I started doing 40 or 100gb NICs on my larger vMix installs becuase I was sick of dealing with drops.”

  • “Can you verify which Netgear switch models you are using? Also, super basic troubleshooting but something I've overlooked in the past - are you running Cat6 (or 7/8) Ethernet cables? Possible that a Cat5 snuck in there somewhere? Run a test, set the cameras to 1080p25 and let us know if the same issue occurs. Where are you seeing the issue? On the vMix computer? On the sff-pc? What are the s”
