DistroAV

DistroAV is a niche publisher dedicated to extending the streaming and production capabilities of OBS Studio through advanced network audio-video transport. Its single flagship component, DistroAV, embeds high-performance NDI® support directly into the open-source broadcaster, turning every camera, microphone, and display on a local network into a remote source. Typical deployments span live event venues where stage cameras feed switchers wirelessly, esports arenas that aggregate player POVs with minimal cabling, corporate studios that route PowerPoint or Skype guest feeds from conference laptops, and educators who share classroom demonstrations across campus channels. The plugin is equally popular with podcasters who pair it with NDI-enabled audio mixers and with home streamers who offload encoding to a second PC while keeping gameplay on the primary rig. Because traffic stays on the LAN, latency stays sub-frame and image quality remains visually lossless, eliminating the need for capture cards or HDMI extenders. Users simply install the lightweight module, activate NDI outputs on sender devices, and select sources inside OBS as if they were locally attached. Scene switching, filtering, and recording proceed exactly as before, while multiview monitors, tally lights, and PTZ controls can be added through companion NDI tools. DistroAV’s software is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always pull the latest release, and can be queued for batch installation alongside other applications.
