Question / Help Media Source loading

[Rabb]

I'm running several streams from different locations to an nginx server and then trying to use OBS to create a scene using the feeds form the nginx server.

The problem I have is loading and rtmp streams as a media source in OBS seems to be very unstable. Some times they load first time, some times they don't load at all. Anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get the to start reliably?

I can't really help but you should post a log which might help the developers. Details for logs are here:

I have to close each instance of OBS for this to work, after each stream is stopped/started. I did switch rtmp servers from.ngix to unreal media server. Only so I could have a gui (windows) it accepts rtmp and show client server status, so I could watch what was happening.

Yeah I've been considering changing the rtmp server. I'll give unreal a try.

Having tested unreal media server my problems are now gone. Unreal seems to be far more reliable then nginx. It may work ok for the Linux guys but on windows I would recommend unreal now.
