No NDI source names in box when adding NDI source

[chicagotope]

I'm working on flipping my two computers at church. Instead of running Proclaim on the faster computer, I want to run OBS on the faster one, and Proclaim on the slower one. I have OBS 30.2.0, NDI Tools and Runtime 6 on both computers, as well as obs ndi version 4.13.2 on both computers. I can send Proclaim as an NDI output, and all 3 cameras from the faster to the slower computer and all of them show up as NDI sources. When I try to find those same sources on the faster computer, there is nothing in the box, even though NDI source is an option. I can bring up all my sources in NDI webcam (Picture 1), but there are no sources in the NDI source name (Picture 2). Is there a setting in OBS that I'm missing? Thanks in advance.

This is OBS support, not NDI- Please contact directly to the NDI plugin maintainer. Probably on the plugin page this person can be contacted.

I don't have the plugin installed but try typing something on the line.

Looks like a bug they are aware of.

Fixed. Had to allow OBS past the firewall on the network. NDI was working fine, so it was an OBS problem. Try giving actual help suggestions next time.

@chicagotope, NDI isnt critical to my operation, but I do have a couple of scenes where I have Mevos running. I had been chasing this issue for a couple of weeks and finally landed on your comment! I'll be damned if it wasn't the firewall. I added it to the allow list and I am back in action. much appreciated!
