Network Chat Pt.3: Multicast Networks (M4250)

With my assistant BirdDogJake, we discuss Multicast, how it works for NDI, and how to set a BirdDog device up on a 4250 to work in this configuration.

Thank you, Jon!

Three questions, 1. How do you handle a network (Cisco 9300) that has layer 3 boundaries between control and cameras? Real example, the baseball field, basketball complex, etc all have gateways between buildings. I realize we can layer 3 multicast but can we unicycle as well?
2. Any issues running Dante on the same network assuming it's a layer 2 network setup correctly for NDI?
3. Can I use multicast on some cameras and unicast on others? This customer site is also using a Tricaster for control during sports.
4. Can I use layer 3 multicast routing.

Hopefully you do something about P200 cams and vMix chroma keying! I did it in a very decent green room but was very disappointed about the poor video quality

This might be an interesting experiment, but I am usually an Anti-Green-Screen guy, mostly because I think it looks cheesy. It's a great idea for a show, though! Thanks!
