Hello, I'm a Spanish-speaking user.
I installed DistroAV, but it doesn't appear in the top toolbar.
I can add NDI sources, but I can't send an NDI signal from my program.

Installation order:
obs-studio-31.0.3-macos-apple
NDIToolsInstaller6.2
distroav-6.1.0-macos-universal

Note: This is a clean install of OBS after formatting macOS 15.5 (24F74) - Apple M1 Pro

Thank you for your help.

Error

After searching through all the modules, I managed to find the DistroAV NDI settings. It's now in Preferences.

lol

This is a very strange issue, as mentioned by @BitRate27 :

I can duplicate this by setting my language preference to Espanol. When the language is Espanol, selecting Preferences.. takes you directly to the DistroAV NDI Settings dialog and you can no longer access the OBS Preferences dialog. More tragic is that you have no way to set the language back to English at this point. There is no entry for DistroAV NDI Settings on the Tools menu either.

Some other observations, works fine on Windows when you select Espanol. What is weird is that on Mac, the OBS menu has the menu button labeled "Preferences..." (in English) which brings up our settings dialog (the bug). It should be labeled "Adjustes" when Espanol is selected.

Created the bug report to keep track!
