should it be possible to send two NDI streams from the same openframeworks app ? #43

i tried sending two NDI streams from my app by creating two ofxNDIsender objects, however when i run ndiSender.CreateSender on the second one i get this error:

ofxNDIsend::CreateSender - no pNDI_send

i quickly reproduced this by modifying the example-sender code to use a second sender and saw same result.

is this expected behavior ? or should i be able to send two streams from same openframeworks app ?

(i am on linux btw - popos)

I investigated this and find that the error occurs if the sender names are the same. With different names, there are no errors and two senders work correctly.

oh whoop thought i changed the name in my test but accidentally left it the same - thanks for your help and for a great addon :))
