Dicaffeine Dicaffeine


What is Dicaffeine?

Currently Dicaffeine is an NDI player and streamer for the two Linux distributions - Raspberry Pi OS (previously called Raspbian) on Raspberry ARM computers and Ubuntu (Xubuntu) on AMD/Intel computers.

The software is distributed for free, but I will appreciate any donations that support the future development.

What is done:

  • Instalation should be working fine.
  • Dicaffeine package will create:
    • shortcut in the Application menu and on the desktop
    • folder called “Dicaffeine” in your home to store images/fonts/media files
  • NDI playback support (audio optional) and saving it as an autostart option after boot.
  • NDI streaming support (audio optional) and saving it as an autostart option after boot:
    • for the USB UVC webcameras/grabbers and some Raspberry CSI cameras
    • for the virtual devices - Dicaffeine can stream media files, images, generated text or just grab the actual screen
  • Accesing remotely via browser on device IP address.
  • Setting network address (static or DHCP, only on Raspberry).
  • PTZ camera control (including experimental support for joysticks).
  • Multistream view, multi display outputs support, display resolution and rotation settings.
  • REST simple API support - starting and stopping playback.
  • Live web stream preview.
