NDI Inputs randomly swapping

Hi Everyone,

I am experiencing something strange with NDI sources in Millumin:

I have 2 separate projections which are generated realtime on another computer and get sent to Millumin over NDI. The sources (inputs) are named differently and are added both in a timeline. I find that absolutely randomly, although the correctly labeled source is playing, it is displaying the other one and vice-versa. 

This happens in both the timeline and dashboard, has anyone been experiencing this? Does anyone know of a fix?

Oddly, this never used to happen with Syphon. I made the switch to NDI because the former is being deprecated.

Thanks in advance and looking forward to your reply!

    In this case, it's often better to reach our email support, so we could create a ticket.
    Indeed : could you send us a TeamViewer session, so we could check this ? Thank you.

    Hi @Phillipe,

    Thank you for your reply! Unfortunately that computer is currently air gapped about to go on tour. Will it be helpful if I make a video of this happening? I will also try to recreate the situation on another computer running Millumin and send you a TV session but it will take some time until I get around to it.

    NDI library provides a name for
    a NDI server in the form "MACHINE_NAME (NDI_SOURCE_NAME)". Millumin
    uses this as an identifier to distinguish the NDI servers.
    For
    example, to retrieve a NDI server that has been missing for a moment :
    Millumin compares this identifier to find the right NDI server. This
    mecanism is shared with Syphon and INetSyphon servers.

    Anyway, if possible, please send us a video (or a TeamViewer session) to our email support.
    We'll study this. Thank you.

    Best. Philippe
