About:
This package provides a plugin that integrates NewTek's NDI (Network Device Interface) technology into OBS Studio. It enables OBS to both send its video/audio output as an NDI source on the network and receive NDI feeds as input sources. This transforms OBS into a powerful hub for professional, low-latency video production workflows over IP networks.

Key Features:

Enables OBS to send its output as a high-quality, low-latency NDI stream
Allows OBS to receive and use multiple NDI sources as inputs within scenes
Supports both Windows and macOS for cross-platform NDI workflows
Facilitates multi-system setups and remote production over a local network

Use Cases:

Live streaming setups requiring multiple PCs for gaming, overlays, and encoding
Professional video production workflows in studios, churches, or event spaces using NDI cameras and hardware
Creating flexible, software-based video mixers and routing systems over IP networks

Alternatives:

obs-websocket – Enables remote control and automation of OBS via WebSockets, but does not provide native NDI video transport.
vdo.ninja – Provides browser-based, peer-to-peer ultra-low-latency video sharing over the internet, as an alternative to local network NDI.
