Question / Help Can send it to a computer right next to it?

[Benn]

I have 2 computers next to each other. I want to send what I'm showing on one computer to the other computer, then combine that with something then stream it from that other computer?

Look at the NDI plugin.

and NDI Tools

Specifically Scan Converter, which can send your monitor and audio over NDI to any PC on your network with the plugin Narcogen posted.

Do not use Wireless, use a gigabit wired router connection.

 

[Narcogen]

Absolutely-- a stable gigabit wired connection is what you want to use NDI, especially for 1080p60 footage.

NDI Scan Converter requires Windows 8 or later. I have Windows 7 on both my computers.
Both the computers are hooked up to the router wired with Ethernet cables.

This could be your trigger and motive to finally update to Windows 10. It's still free of cost.

You can install the NDI plugin and OBS on both computers and use that instead of Scan Converter as long as the NDI runtime and libraries install. Is it those that require Windows 8 or up, or just the Scan Converter application?
