OMT Player for Windows
OMT Player for Windows – Unzip, start, and receive OMT streams directly with image and sound.
vMix29 has established a fantastic new media transport protocol, OpenMediaTransport (OMT).
This allows media files to be distributed easily within the local network. Unlike NDI, this protocol is license-free. I wish this product a successful launch into the media world.
Description
I have developed a small OMT Player for Windows that allows you to receive OMT streams (video + audio) directly on the network. The application is based on the official libomtnet SDK (thanks Martin) and uses NAudio for audio playback.
Features
- Automatic discovery of OMT sources in the local network
- Video display in window (BGRA)
- Audio playback (48 kHz, stereo)
- Easy operation via Refresh / Connect / Disconnect
Download & Installation
The Google link is warning or not working at the moment. Google says I am violating the terms of use (malware). I reported the zip file to Google for review.
So i added another Link:
SwissTransfer (works only 250x)
- Unzip ZIP into any folder
- Start OMTplay.exe – no setup required
Note
If no source is found (even though one is running), please check the Windows firewall. For me, it helped to turn off the firewall or create a rule for OMTplay.exe.
Tested with vMix (standard OMT settings) – approx. 50–70 Mbit/s arrive in the player.
Works perfectly for me, even wirelessly on a WiFi6 network.
This is not mature production software
