It serves as a system for routing and transmitting media using the Network Device Interface protocol. The project enables the integration of remote network streams into local production scenes as standard input sources. It supports broadcasting program output for remote monitoring and the transmission of individual sources or scenes to network destinations. The software includes capabilities for codec-based media decoding, manual IP-based source discovery, and filter-based routing to direct specific inputs to network targets. It also handles multi-destination stream dispatch to send signals to local outputs and remote targets simultaneously. ## Tags ### Graphics & Multimedia - [NDI Protocol Streaming](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/graphics-multimedia/media-processing-analysis/media-manipulation/media-processing/streaming-network-frameworks/ndi-protocol-streaming.md) — Uses the NDI protocol to transmit high-quality audio and video streams over local IP networks. - [Media Distribution Networks](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/graphics-multimedia/media-distribution-networks.md) — Streams high-fidelity audio and video from broadcast sessions to multiple client devices over a network.
