NDI HX Camera - most likely a NDI compatibility issue. I may add more based off comments or other findings in the future. List of 3rd party applications this setup does not work with. Then in Unraid setting up a Container Path of /Video to a Host Path of something like /mnt/cache/obs-ndi/video. I’d also recommend setting a recording path in the container to something like /video. All of this is accomplished without the need of a capture card!Īlso given my system stats, it’s hard to confirm that NVIDIA is actually doing anything because the CPU is always highly active during a stream. The Unraid server will do all of the encoding instead of your gaming computer thus allowing you to have the near to maximum gaming performance. Your OBS container then captures this video where then you can use a GPU or CPU to encode the video and send it off to Twitch or YouTube. Essentially you are sending un-encoded video over the local network (using NDI) to your OBS container. Here is very simple diagram with a visual representation of how this all works. This can all be done over your local network. A second system can then capture that audio and video output and transcode it to be sent off to some other streaming service like Twitch. NDI is a plugin that allows you to capture audio and video from a device and output that data to the network. GPUs Tested with: P600 & k420 What is NDI? Get more out of your Unraid server with those left over system resources! Let’s get started. This the perfect lightweight solution over using a virtual machine or a dedicated PC. This is the updated 2021 guide for setting up an OBS NDI container in Unraid 6.9.
