"Are both machines on the same physical network, and configured to be part of the same subnet? "


How do I do this, or do I see it?

Boy, you're a genius, you can open ndi studio. It shows that the transmission is ok, right? And the problem is the streaming pc?

In OBS on the streaming PC you need to tell the source what NDI feed to use.You do that by right clicking the NDI source in the list and choosing the "Properties" item from the contextual menu.

Just to be clear-- so when you click on the pulldown next to Source Name, there are no entries in the list? It won't just show up there, you have to choose it.

But yes, if you are running your network on a switch that only supports 100Mbps you could be saturating your network, I suppose. But if the stream is viewable on a 2nd computer using the Studio Monitor program then you should be able to see it in OBS as well.

Yes that's right, does not appear the option to choose the Game PC. The arrow on the right side of the list entry does not open

When I open NDI Studio on Streaming PC, it can not find the Game PC signal.

The switch is / 1000, but my router is / 100. This would totally prevent the operation of the technology, or should it work more with lag?

The router should not affect it, no, since the NDI feed is only intended for the LAN. If you have OBS sending out a valid NDI signal on one computer and another computer on the same wired network does not see it, then there is a network issue that needs to be resolved before OBS will be able to receive that feed.

Did you all find a solution to this? I'm having the same problem. I've done all of the installation for NDI, OBS, and opened all of my network sharing settings so the computers can share media, but the drop down arrow still won't work and give me my source from my first PC. Both PC's are pretty good and I have great internet service so I'm not sure what the networking side would be for me to fix this. Do you think it is in the modem?

MY problem is that when capturing the game screen with the stream pc, it does not detect it, but if I exchange the roles of the pc, it does detect the screen.

Sending data - receiving data - result
pc game - pc stream - Does not detect
pc stream - pc game - if it detects it
