Can it be put onto the radar the ability to output via NDI (
https://ndi.tv/sdk/)
there are a number of NDI endpoint devices from organisations such as birddog and magewell that take an NDI (over ethernet) signal and convert it back to HDMI/SDI for output in multiple destinations/ screens/projectors.
This would also simplify the way output is combined with streaming devices.
Thank you.

Anyway I understand that the license seems extremely restrictive.
I know that NDI is already integrated into GNU license opensource applications like OBS studio.
My question is simple: do we have the right to freely use the NDI SDK in an open source software under GNU license?
if yes : Good ! Question closed
if no : What must be done step by step to be able to use the NDI SDK in the application as for the obs-ndi plugin in OBS studio?
We spent all our budget on vMix and are trying to shoehorn as much ndi as possible into it.
This is a must-have for our church.

One possible workaround that OpenLP might be able to do is since NDI tools is free and they provide a VLC plugin to pull a stream. From my understanding in the past VLC was used to play videos for openlp. If that is still true they might be able to reconfigure how media gets input and have an IP option for ndi streams and then when you go to an NDI slide it uses vlc.
This is nothing short of amazing, I'm even using the official 20$ NDI app from AppleStore to connect my Iphone to this and I only see possibilities with this technology. To the best of my knowledge the limitations will be within your home network.
