DistroAV

DistroAV enables OBS Studio to receive and transmit audio and video over a network using NDI® technology. By integrating NDI support directly into OBS, the software allows users to capture video streams from remote sources, send their own output to other NDI‑compatible devices, and route audio without additional hardware. The implementation is built for macOS and is marked as stable, indicating it is production‑ready for regular use.

The tool is aimed at live‑streamers, video producers, and anyone who needs to incorporate networked media into their OBS workflows. It expands the flexibility of OBS by allowing seamless inter‑application video sharing across a LAN, which can simplify multi‑camera setups, remote contributions, and collaborative productions.

Because it works as a core macOS plugin, DistroAV requires no external adapters or capture cards to handle NDI streams, relying solely on software to manage the network transport of audio and video within the OBS environment.
