About:
DistroAV is a plugin for OBS Studio that integrates NewTek's NDI (Network Device Interface) technology. It enables high-quality, low-latency video and audio streaming over a standard IP network. This allows you to send and receive professional-grade video feeds between computers on your local network without dedicated capture cards.

Key Features:

NDI Source and Output integration directly within OBS
Supports high-resolution, low-latency video and audio streams
Eliminates the need for physical capture cards for network sources
Seamless workflow for sending and receiving OBS feeds

Use Cases:

Multi-PC streaming setups where one PC runs the game and the other runs OBS
Integrating live video feeds from remote cameras or computers into an OBS scene
Sending the final OBS program output to other NDI-compatible software or hardware

Alternatives:

OBS Studio Virtual Camera – Sends a video feed locally, but NDI is more robust for network streaming and multi-source management.
SDI/HDMI Capture Cards – Hardware solution offering physical connections, whereas DistroAV uses existing network infrastructure.
