Hi, I just installed Nginx in my Xampp htdocs folder and have changed the default listen port to port 8042 http://localhost:8042.
I want to use setup my push RTMP:// to stream to VLC, and my website using OBS.
I think I have the VLC network connection right but nothing plays in the screen and the OBS stream setting is not connecting. After that, I would want to find the best way to stream OBS to my website.

i use port 1935 for rtmp. like so:
rtmp://192.168.0.1:1935/dcrstreamin
then i have a separate streamout so i can view the encoded output. Which makes troubleshooting super easy.
Where did u get 8042 from? If it's over lan it needs to be open, if it's pc to pc it shouldnt matter.
generally u should just read some of the sticky and guides.

Best of luck.
