DistroAV - Network Audio/Video in OBS-Studio using NDI® technology

DistroAV - Network Audio/Video in OBS-Studio using NDI® technology 6.1.1

Is there a way I can connect my OBS to Easy worship for display of text (Bible and songs) using the NDI plugin and how can I go about it?
 
For those who are wondering. The OBS-NDI plugin that I am currently using is working on OBS 29.0.0 for me. That being said, the version of the OBS-NDI plugin I am using is the 5.0 version that was taken down. I am on a PC.
 
Hello, it would be very appreciated if you could fix the ndi runtime error on apple silicon. I can't figure out how to get your Plugin working with OBS 29 on a m1 pro.
 
I recently re-installed OBS NDI on v. 29 as a test and it's working for me (Mac Silicon).

I plan to drop it at some point (and just use SRT) as it does feel like it will fail one day but for the moment it's a convenience for a singularly specific thing.
Was this Intel version ? or Apple silicon version - what version of NDI and Runtime?
 
As it said in my post that you quoted, Mac Silicon (ARM 64).

Installation details already given by others in this thread,
 
Does this plugin take the incoming audio or the output audio (after the audio sync offset delay)? IOW, if I'm using 220ms sync offset to sync my video and audio in OBS, will this plugin output the synced audio (output) or the unsynced audio (input). Thanks for any info.
 
I use three machines to stream with NDI connections among them.

The one I'm having the most critical trouble with goes between the machine I integrate the stream with (overlays, my mike, the game I'm capping) and my encoder machine (generates H.264/AAC and packet-pushes to Twitch/YouTube/whatever).

I see a full second's worth of delay between the audio and video with the audio a full second behind the video. The only settings I'm tweaking are latency and sync. Using pretty much all the defaults for everything else. I also offload resizing to the encoder machine. I was originally streaming 1080P59.94 at my most recent place (had 35Mbps' worth of upstream available), but where I am now, I have to stream at 720p59.94 (upwards of 8mbps). Also, there's some stoppage at times, which has me a little concerned. In the meantime, I'm using Teleport between the stream integration machine and the encoder machine.

I still have to use NDI between the VTuber machine (runs VTube Studio and Remasuri3's Twitch Interactive Throwing System, and OBS to composite them together) as I need the alpha channel support. There are some issues here, but they're minor compared to the above.

Also, here are some other details:

OBS Studio 29.0.0
OBS NDI plugin, 4.10.1
NDI runtime 5.5.2.0

All of which runs under Windows 10 Pro release 21H2 64-bit on all systems.

Anything I should capture from my setup for diagnostic purposes or any change suggestions?

Also, is there any other information you may need?

Thanks in advance.

Anyone know how to change the ip of the server? I have a stream server that has multiple nics and would like to have internal traffic from ndi on one nic and all other data on another nic. The networking side is working and setup to allow this just need to know how to change the websocket server ip address as its taking the main traffic nic and not the internal traffic nic. Thank you.
 
Haven't streamed in a year... now setting everything back up and I can't get my camera working.

BirdDog PF120 NDI-5.5.089
OBS 29.0.0 64-bit
OBS-NDI 4.10
NDI Runtime 5.5.2.0

Camera shows up perfectly fine in NDI Tools. Does not show up in OBS.
What am I missing here?
 
I see a lot of people complaining about this plugin having issues, but I don't have any issues at all on windows now that they have patched with the 4.10.1 plugin here https://github.com/DDRBoxman/obs-ndi/releases/tag/4.10.1 . Both of my windows PC's are connected via a netgear GSS108E.

All I did to install is install the latest NDI Tools 5.5.2.0 on both pc's from here https://www.ndi.tv/tools/#download-tools . I had whatever the lastest version of OBS 28 at the time on both PC's. Then I downloaded the zip version of the OBS NDI plugin which has two folders when you unzip. I placed the files in each of those folders in the appropriate folders in my OBS directories on both PC's and everything seems to be working. I don't get any stuttering or have any audio desync issues at all. I did a 5 hour stream on twitch to test (not a regular streamer at all) last weekend and as far as I can tell everything is as expected. You can view that here if you would like https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1701651203 . Maybe you can point out issues that I'm missing, but as far as I can tell it works?
I just did this same exact setup and everything appears to work within OBS, but when it is actually streamed it was extremely choppy audio. It definitely doesn't work properly. Oddly enough, for the audio I can use vb-audio virtual cables to capture the output of the ndi video/audio in NDI Studio Monitor. I then use that NDI Monitor captured audio as an input and then it streams the audio without issue.

Not sure what the deal is with that, but it's working...for now anyways.
 
Those who have the problem with BROKEN AUDIO or Audio Crackling

Just dont use OBS 29 and NDI 5

Instead of that use OBS 27 + obs ndi 4.9.

There was a link earlier in the thread to 4.10.1. It seems to have fixed the sound issues here, but my main issue is a sound offset from the video about a second behind the video when I stream an NDI-hosted scene (how I move a completed stream to an encoder machine).

The post is here.

GitHub link is here.

Hope this helps.

I'm not having an issue with audio in NDI5... I'm having an issue where my NDI5 camera isn't showing up AT ALL. The camera shows up in NDI Tools and other NDI programs without any problems.
 
Hey, you can fix it simply by opening up a Terminal on mac, and write this:

sudo cp "/Applications/NDI Video Monitor.app/Contents/Frameworks/libndi_advanced.dylib" "/usr/local/lib/libndi.4.dylib"
You all have posted some really great information. I have an M2/Ventura 13.2 with OBS 29.0.2 and trying to set up NDI 4.10.0-QT6 UsingNDI Runtime-4.5.1. I just do not have enough knowledge to get either of the fixes above to work. Can you help a dumb guy out? Maybe a little more step by step in either of the solutions above.

I'm having the same problem on a fresh install on a new machine. Although everything is working fine on 3 other computers with OBS 29.0.2 and NDI 5.5.3, the new HP Elitebook i7 does not show any source in OBS 29.0.2 with NDI 5.5.3. All drivers are actual, BIOS is updated and all sources are visible in the NDI Studio Monitor. After hours of testing I have no other explanation as an incompatibility of the NDI plugin to OBS....
 
What is the best NDI-Runtime to install on Windows with OBS 29.0.2 and NDI Plugin 4.10.1?
On Palakis.fr, Runtime for Windows is available in these releases:

4.5.1
4.6.1
5.0
5.0.10.1

Thanks

UPDATE: I had got the new computer with preconfigured W10Pro 64Bit. Since there was not very much software installed I reinstalled Windows 10 Pro once again on a blank drive. Now ist works as it has to with the installed configuration: OBS 29.0.2, NDI-Plugin 4.10.0 and NDI 5.5.3. Everything ok!
