NDI receiver provides no configuration.

There is currently no way to configure the NDI receiver to accept a stream of a specific name.

Not yet, no.

The current implementation just have sender/receiver broadcast ( intranet ) capabilities between clients running Mosaic.

The NDI library integration came from a @thomasgeissl ofxaddon, ofxNDI, then forked with minor changes here: ofxNDI.

Looking at the addon code, no, there is no actual implementation of configuring the receiver metadata, but i don't think it should be difficult to add, here we are reading the metadata from the sender: https://github.com/d3cod3/ofxNDI/blob/a777204469729eb3760f780b2da4b20080245f50/src/ofxNDIGrabber.cpp#L89

but not using it.

What is the scope of your comment? Are you trying to receive different streams on the same machine?

You could propose a specific update for the NDI sender/receiver objects, including code if you are into it, and we'll add it for the next Mosaic release.

The goal is to be able to send and receive streams from other clients on the network not running mosiac. And being able to select the available sources using the NDI discovery system.
