NDI Bridge automation
An NDI Bridge executable can also be launched using the following command line arguments:
/verbose
Generates extensive log entries in Windows Event Logs, with the event source labeled as "NDI Bridge."
/host
Initiates the Bridge in host mode.
/join
Launches the Bridge in join mode.
/local
Starts the Bridge in local mode.
/autorun
Minimizes the Bridge window upon startup.
/noui
Suppresses the display of any user interface elements and prevents the creation of a taskbar icon.
For example, you can use /local /autorun to initiate the Bridge in local mode and minimize it. Similarly, /local /noui
will start the Bridge in local mode without any user interface. If you use /autostart
without specifying /host
, /join
, or /local
, the Bridge will start in the last selected mode.
It's important to note that Bridge will not start with these flags if there is a configuration error, such as an invalid IP address for the remote address in the join mode while attempting to auto-start join.
If you prefer to configure the Bridge using a configuration file, you can find the settings in AppData\Local\NDI\Application.NDI.Bridge.UI\bridge_settings.json.
Most setting names are self-explanatory, except for "selected_tab," which serves as an index field to indicate the last selected tab (mode) the user used (0 = host, 1 = join, 2 = local).
All settings for each mode are present in the same file, so you may need to adjust your logic to target the correct settings for the appropriate mode (e.g., "host_model," "local_model," "join_model").
