Question / Help [OBS 25.0.3] Unable to create SRT stream / override system ffmpeg

Hey folks -

I'm wanting to do some SRT experiments, and was excited to hear about the SRT support in OBS 25! Unfortunately, I seem to be hitting a snag. From the console, I get:

warning: Couldn't open 'srt://127.0.0.1?mode=listener&latency=200&maxbw=786432', Protocol not found

I know that OBS depends on the system ffmpeg, so I'm guessing the issue has to do with the system ffmpeg not being compiled with libsrt. I'd rather not replace my system ffmpeg, and I do have a compiled version of ffmpeg with libsrt support. Am I on the right path, and if so, does anyone know how I could override the system ffmpeg when launching OBS to use my compiled versions?

Thanks!
