GStreamer NDI Plugin for Linux
====================
*Compiled and tested with NDI SDK 3.5, 3.8, 4.0 and 4.1*
*Compiled and tested with NDI SDK 4.0, 4.1 and 5.0*
This is a plugin for the [GStreamer](https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/) multimedia framework that allows GStreamer to receive a stream from a [NDI](https://www.newtek.com/ndi/) source. This plugin has been developed by [Teltek](http://teltek.es/) and was funded by the [University of the Arts London](https://www.arts.ac.uk/) and [The University of Manchester](https://www.manchester.ac.uk/).
Currently the plugin has two source elements, `ndivideosrc` to get video from the stream and `ndiaudiosrc` for audio. By just providing the name or the ip of the stream, all the information required from the stream is picked up automatically, such as resolution, framerate, audio channels, ...
Currently the plugin has a source element for receiving from NDI sources, a sink element to provide an NDI source and a device provider for discovering NDI sources on the network.
Some examples of how to use these elements from the command line:
```
#Information about the elements
gst-inspect-1.0 ndi
gst-inspect-1.0 ndisrc
gst-inspect-1.0 ndisink
```console
# Information about the elements

$ gst-inspect-1.0 ndisrc
$ gst-inspect-1.0 ndisink
# Discover all NDI sources on the network
$ gst-device-monitor-1.0 -f Source/Network:application/x-ndi

-------
To compile the NDI element it's necessary to install Rust, the NDI SDK and the following packages for gstreamer:
```
apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev \
gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good \

By defult GStreamer 1.16 is required, to use only GStreamer 1.12 instead of 1.16, pass `--disable-default-features` to cargo. Only a subset of video formats is supported with this GStreamer version.
If all went ok, you should see info related to the NDI element. To make the plugin available without using `GST_PLUGIN_PATH` it's necessary to copy the plugin to the gstreamer plugins folder.
