Stream with NDI + OBS

The SRT feature in Premiere is still very new so for best performance we recommend using NDI together with the OBS software instead. It requires a bit more setup but has better latency and reliability.

  • Download and install OBS here.

  • Download and install NDI support for OBS.

  • Download and install NDI tools to get the Premiere plugin.

  • Open Playback Settings in Premiere and select NDI output for audio and NDI video stream.

  • Open OBS and add NDI as the input source.
  • In the NDI source settings, select Premiere Pro

OBS Configuration​

Now that you have NDI set up as your input source, follow the instructions from our OBS SDR Streaming guide starting from the "Configure Stream Settings" section.

Enable Local Audio Monitoring​

Premiere sends all audio to OBS through NDI, so we need to enable monitoring to hear audio locally while streaming:

• Right-click NDI audio meter
• Select Advanced Audio Properties
• Enable 'Monitor and Output'
• Audio now streams AND plays locally

How to Watch​

For detailed instructions on viewing your stream, see our How to Watch guides.
