    Question

    Why does the OBSBOT Tiny Smart Remote Controller stop working when the Tiny2 Lite is connected via a UVC to NDI adapter?

    Answer

    Based on the OBSBOT Tiny Smart Remote Controller manual, the remote relies on a USB Receiver (stored on the back of the remote) that must be plugged directly into the computer, and the OBSBOT WebCam software must be running with the [Remote Controller] setting enabled.

    When you use a UVC to NDI adapter, the camera's data stream is converted to a network signal, which often bypasses the direct USB HID (Human Interface Device) communication required by the OBSBOT software to translate remote commands to the camera. To troubleshoot this, please check the following:

    • USB Receiver Placement: Ensure the USB Receiver is plugged into the computer running the OBSBOT WebCam software, not into the NDI adapter itself.
    • Software Connection: The OBSBOT WebCam software must still "see" the camera as a connected device to pass remote commands to it. Most NDI setups treat the camera as a network source rather than a local USB device, which may prevent the software from controlling the camera via the remote.
    • Compatibility: The manual specifies that the remote is designed for a direct connection (Step 2: Plug receiver into computer; Step 3: Connect Tiny 2 to computer). Using an NDI bridge often breaks the control path required for the Smart Remote.

    If you must use NDI, you may need to use the OBSBOT software's virtual camera or NDI control features if available, though the physical Smart Remote is primarily designed for local USB configurations.
