Currently, when VLC, NDI, OBS and other software do NDI encoding, the encoding format is mostly NDI|HB or Full NDI, ZowieBox does not support NDI|HB and Full NDI decoding as the specification, if you need to decode these NDI sources, please use the Bridge tool of NDI Tools to convert the NDI source to HX and then decode it.

1.Log in to the ZowieBox web console, click Setting->Streaming->Decoder, and make sure that no streams are decoded. The output format cannot be switched during decoding.

2.Click Setting->Video->Output, make sure Loopout is turned off and select the required output format and click Save.

Different models of lenses require different working distances at different zoom ratios, otherwise it may lead to focusing failure, focus breathing and other phenomena.
