Open Media Transport

[thomas-parb]

Hello dear Isadoras...

Are there already plans to implement Open Media Transport (OMT) /  https://www.openmediatransport.org?
Unfortunately, NDI has now become proprietary software.
Sienna and vMix are already (slightly) relying on it. It would be a nice thing, even if there are currently few or no end devices available.

Best regards from Vienna, Tom

 It is something I have looked into previously. As you said with little hardware support, it isn't something that is high priority for use right now, but that could change with adoption. I will make sure this is in our feature request database so that it can't be forgotten.

 Yeah I've heard from reliable sources that NDI is on it's way out - moving to a paid subscription.

 Thankfully I can confirm this is not the case. This summer, there was confusing messaging from NDI on this indicating that they may require commercial software to pay for a commercial license of their SDKs, but after the strong negative response, they immediately clarified that the free SDK is here to stay.
