NDI® Viewer for X11 (xcb)

• Only video, no audio support (yet).
• Requires NDI SDK from http://ndi.tv/.
• libxcb and libxcb-shm are the only external dependencies.

Usage:

  xndiview [-l | -h | [-pmvgfit] ndi_source]

  -l  List available sources
  -h  Help

  -p  Send Preview Tally
  -m  Send Program Tally
  -v  Verbose
  -g  Gray letterbox background
  -f  Fullscreen
  -i  Treat ndi_source as ip:port instead of ndi name
  -t  Show transparency

Known issues:

• Keyboard handling uses keycode directly instead of using (e.g.) xkbcommon to map it first to keysym.
• Does not support other visuals than TrueColor 24bpp with "BGRX" layout (red_mask = 0xff0000, green_mask = 0x00ff00, blue_mask = 0x0000ff).
• No support for alpha / indication of transparency.
