bullseye is the latest release of Debian. Looks like you will need to update from buster to bullseye

Another option would be to pull down and older release of the ndi plugin built for Buster

Hello guys, when is planned the release of this plugin compatible with the chip M1?

Yes I'm on windows.
The only solutions I found were to set all audio levels to the same Sample Rate (48khz) and to disable "Use Device Stamps" for the Desktop Audio properties, I have no idea why but these things worked. Also, NDI doesn't like dedicated filters on your audio (they sometimes bug out) so if you have any kind of NDI Audio or ASIO filters/outputs, they might stop the second PC from picking it up via NDI. So either NDI Ouput filter should be used, or none at all (the usual filters like gates, etc. are fine).
As for the "performance", I don't know why, but it seems to be an OBS thing, I tried using some Media Sources (like videos) for when I was AFK on the stream, turns out OBS uses an abnormally large amount of processing power (almost 5-10% per media source), even when the media source isn't displayed or disabled. I tried a million things and it seems like an issue with OBS or a really weird way they decided to process stuff. I mean I don't know why OBS would need almost 30% of my processor if I have 2 videos in 2 different "Scenes" that are not active, but that could explain why NDI was having a heart attack on the primary PC.
NDI should only be costing you 2-3% processing power while active.
The only way your Primary PC would still be under the same load as if encoding is if it's Streaming, using a Plugin that does multi-streaming (Youtube + Twitch+ etc), you have many Media Sources (Videos, images, etc), you're Recording, you have plugins with fancy filters (like StreamFX) or are doing something fancy with the NDI filters (NDI Video + NDI Audio filters) to send data in a fancy way to your Secondary PC.

I'm Running a capture computer that OS 10.12 Sierra and can only take OBS v24. How do I work around this?

Thanks, this is the answer I have been looking for. Another question that I have is does the plugin use the cpu or the gpu for processing the ndi stream.

Yes, there is a GPU cost as well, since OBS kinda needs some kind of graphical unit to do it's stuff (it's hard-coded that way). If you don't want your GPU to be used for processing, in Windows 10 under Control Panel, you can tell OBS to no use your graphics card, only processor, but IIRC, it will instead use the Processor GPU unit if Intel.
This will add, pending on scene, 5-10% more load.

Another question.
Is there a way to send separate audio sources instead of sending them combined into one?

It's spelled "gist" and pronounced like "gif."

Works for me. Just an FYI, HX seems to bug out if Capture Mouse Cursor is enabled.

Are there any problems with the newest version and NDI? I updated to OBS 26.1.0, OBS-NDI on Windows to 4.9.0 and the latest NDI-Tools 4.5.
I can see the NDI-Stream from the other PC on the NDI-Studio-Monitor, but do not see the Streams from the other PC inside OBS. If I capture e.g. the own screen on the PC with OBS, I can choose this stream easily in OBS.

The fact that you're getting the NDI stream OK with Studio Monitor but not in OBS on your second PC has me thinking something may be wrong with the NDI plugin install on the second PC.
I run the exact same setup and the plugin doesn’t show up in OBS at all. Tried a reboot to no success. Any ideas, guys?
I notice that the recording time is in my case limited to one minute. Is there a setting to chenge them? Did not find any information regarding this.

I have multiple instances of OBS running. However, NDI main output setting (Tools -> NDI Output Settings -> Main Output) works for only one instance of OBS as this setting seems to globally apply to all running OBS instances. i.e., if I modify the NDI output setting in one instance of OBS, close all instances of OBS and reopen them, all OBS instances show the same NDI output setting but only one OBS instance will actually output NDI.
In my setup each OBS instance runs with its own profile and scene collection, i.e., there is no sharing of OBS profile or scene collection among OBS instances. Is there way to have each OBS instance output its own NDI main output?
Thanks in advance.

Running OBS 26.0.2, NDI version 4.9.0
My mistake was not checking the requirements. My CPU doesn’t support SSS3.
