About:
libNDI is the core software development kit from NDI (Network Device Interface), enabling developers to integrate low-latency, high-quality video over IP into their applications. It provides the necessary libraries and headers for building custom NDI sources, receivers, and recorders. This SDK is the foundation for professional video workflows across local networks and the internet.
Key Features:
  • Ultra-low latency video transmission
  • Cross-platform SDK (Windows, macOS, Linux)
  • Supports resolutions up to 4K and beyond
  • Simple C-style API for easy integration
Use Cases:
  • Developing custom video capture and streaming applications
  • Integrating professional broadcast sources into software
  • Building multi-camera live production systems
Alternatives:
  • SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) – Open-source protocol focused on secure, reliable streaming over unpredictable networks, less of a plug-and-play SDK.
  • RTMP – Legacy streaming protocol with higher latency, less suited for interactive, multi-stream local network workflows.
