We currently have Flowics NDI® Converter is an application that converts your graphics to integrate them into NDI workflows.This application will receive a URL of a Flowics Graphics and a name for the NDI stream (among other settings), continually render the HTML output and cast an NDI video from it.
Through this integration, you will be able to deliver Flowics graphics with transparency without the need of chroma keying. Also, by doing this via NDI, you can use your switcher's inputs for additional cameras, video players, etc.
Requirements
Having installed OBS 26.1.1 or higher. (Download it from https://obsproject.com/download)
Flowics Output URL.
Configuring the NDI output
To get NDI output working in OBS we need to following the next steps according to your system:
Windows
Download and install:
NDI 4.5 Windows runtime: https://ndi.palakis.fr/runtime/ndi-runtime-4.5.1-Windows.exe
Run the whole installation and at the end it will ask you to reboot your system.
Mac
Download and install:
NDI 4.5 macOS runtime:https://ndi.palakis.fr/runtime/ndi-runtime-4.5.1-macOS.pkg
Once you have rebooted the system (only for Windows), open OBS and on the upper menu go to Tools. You should be able to see NDI Output Settings.
If you can see this menu it means that you have successfully completed the installation.
Enabling Transparent Background
Now that your OBS-NDI output is ready, you have to add the Flowics URL as a browser source.
Tip: If you do not know how to do it, follow our guide.
Once you have added the Browser Source you must right click on the Input and select Filters.
In the Filters for “Browser” window we must add two types of filters in the Effect Filters section:
Dedicated NDI Output.
obs-ndi - Fix alpha blending.
Now any software that supports NDI Inputs should be receiving the OBS NDI output with alpha channel. You will find the one signal named "Dedicated NDI Output".
