This is fantastic, the NDI protocol holds lots of promise. A couple years ago code was added in ffmpeg to build against the proprietary Newtek libraries, but the builds with it enabled were not distributable since it mixed GPL and proprietary licenses. Well too many winey windows users who can't setup a build environment to save their life caused Newtek to start handing out win32 builds of ffmpeg with NDI enable. That pissed off ffmpeg devs and the NDI code got axed.
Hopefully the opensource library will pick up support in ffmpeg.

VLC and OBS (Studio) are some of the few open source project that is truly crossplatform and simply amazing to use. Those involved are setting a high standard for libre software. Thanks for not selling out!Leave a comment:
