Click to watch the complete video tutorial with voice over - or continue to the next page for written instructions
  1. Open Premiere Pro, go to Playback Preferences
  2. Select Enable Mercury Transmit
  3. Set Primary Audio Device to NDI Audio
  4. For Transmit Device Playback, select NDI Output, then click OK
  5. Make sure your Playback Resolution is set to Full (not 1/2, 1/4, or lower - learn more )
  6. If you’re using Premiere Pro and NDI - LDE via Jump Desktop, ensure that the sound output in System Settings is set to Jump Desktop Audio. Make sure the Monitoring Device in LDE (the Louper Desktop Encoder) is set to Jump Desktop Audio and the headphone icon is unmuted (white) or the speaker icon is checked

Premiere Pro is now sending out an NDI feed which can be captured and streamed by LDE.

note

If the NDI output does not show up as an Audio or Video device playback option, you may need to download NDI Tools.

note

Premiere Pro does not play audio over your computer's audio device / speakers when NDI Audio is selected. This guide will cover monitoring of NDI Audio using LDE.

note

If you’re having trouble hearing audio using Jump Desktop, please refer to these troubleshooting steps.

tip

You can select multiple Video Devices for Mercury Transmit, for example to send the Premiere Pro output to both NDI and a second monitor.
