Reviews for NDI Camera: Easy Streaming

My first experience with the app was awesome - easy to set up, worked flawlessly. I used it a lot with NDI Plugin in OBS. Then it stopped working. It shows up as a source, but just transmits black video (audio works) - not acceptable for an app costing 20$. Other NDI Sources including the same app on my old phone on the same network work fine. If you fix this, I'll rate 5 stars immediately. If you need more info for debugging, feel free to ask.

I'm loving the potential, but still needs some work. Yeah it's $20 but you can use it across multiple devices if they are logged into the same account and honestly you're not gonna find a functional camera for cheaper. It works well on my pixel 4a at 720 and 1080 but not 4k. I tried it on my old moto x4 and the preview window is rotated 90 degrees but it transmits fine. Again, no 4k. Delay is under 1/4 second especially if low latency mode is enabled. They just need to fix the bugs.

Great potential but I really wish NewTek would have tested this better before release. Feed transmits to Vmix fine, but camera monitor is just black on the phone (Samsung Galaxy S7). Price would be fair for a working app, but others seem to be having plenty of issues as well, so I'd suggest waiting little while for the bugs to hopefully be worked out before paying for this. UPDATE: Some issues appear to be resolved with the latest update.

Installed, set up and connects quickly to the studio. However, there doesn't seem to be an option for 60fps (is this intended?) and I am having problems with the sound. This is being used as a proof of concept for a wider nationwide ndi installation, so not the best start.

Like many others have reported - completely black screen on the phone. It does appear to be streaming the video signal, but without the preview on the phone it's very difficult to frame a remote shot - makes the app mostly worthless for it's intended purpose. Running Android 12 on a Pixel 5.

Used to work great on my old phone. Sense of grading to the Pixel 6 , the images isn't displayed on the phone so it's tough to align shots. However, the camera is still utilized and transmits properly, just a bit of a hiccup and setting up shots. Hopefully this will be addressed because otherwise very happy with the app.

UPDATE: The Jan. 14 update seems to have the app working agsin. I never got a response to my feedback but the app is great when it's working. Thanks for fixing it. Worked great for the first few days but has stopped working on my Samsung Galaxy S9+ since a Jan. 4 update. It crashes soon after opening. I've been submitting crash reports since Sunday morning with no response.

Already used this on an iPhone, a brilliant way to get a roving camera's video + audio into a computer wirelessly! All resolutions working fine on my Pixel 4a, and multi-device installation _does_ work, it just takes ~10mins for the Play Store to update on the other devices (same Google account). Latency is ~200ms, similar as the iPhone. Have used this app for livestreaming and as an 'overhead table camera' for games nights during pandemic lockdowns, and it's worth the high purchase price!

Purchased app to show my support, as I believe you guys will work hard to fix the bugs being reported. - App is pretty much lagless on my 5gh wifi. Image quality is good, but I guess it depends on each device's camera. - Please make it work across all devices. Not working correctly on my S8+ international version. Not showing any image on the device itself but the image looks good on OBS. Also, microphone doesn't work in the app. OBS shows audio is coming in from the device, but the sound is very low and sound choppy... at best. probably a codec thing? - Please add the ability to turn off screen in order to conserve battery life. - Let us adjust the intensity of the flash. As you should be aware. light is a critical component, being able to manage it should be a must. So let us adjust the flash on the device and maybe, if using the front camera, turn the screen white to simulate a flash? - I know it's not your department, but if you can make the app, work also via usb-c, I will tattoo the NDI logo somewhere on my body, lol. Once this gets fixed or implemented this will blow all similar apps out of the water. Thank you for your hard work.

When it worked, this app is a dynamite idea. Works great out of the box, easy to hook into any NDI setup Currently on my box I'm experiencing what is clearly a pretty global issue for others, app is showing fully black video on the phone (however, the data does show up on the receiving end correctly). Using a Samsung Galaxy s21. I'm a software engineer, reinstalled everything, cleared cache, restarted phone, nada. If it weren't for this, would be a five star since everything else is great
