NDIlib_recv_listener_send_connect troubles

Hi All

I am experimenting with the advanced SDK, and trying to use NDIlib_recv_listener_send_connect().

In a nutshell, I have the example code from the SDK "NDIlib_Recv_Listener_Advanced.cpp", in I have added my vendor ID via JSON in the call to NDIlib_recv_listener_create_ex().  I also have the receive advertiser "NDIlib_Recv_Advertiser.cpp", and a test pattern straight from the NDI tools install.  I have the discovery service running on the default IP/port, and have configured both these example programs to use it.

I simply cannot get the NDIlib_recv_listener_send_connect() call to succeed in connecting the receive advertiser and test pattern; it repeatedly returns false, with apparently no way of me finding out exactly why.

I can provide code if needed, but literally these are examples straight out of the SDK I am running.

Can someone provide any insight, please?
