Hi all.
i read a lot of threads on this theme, but still having issues.
i'm trying to use OBS to local stream on many different PC
i tryed many setup for the URL
UDP://127.0.0.1:9999
UDP://239.0.0.1:9999
UDP://224.0.0.1:9999 (this setup gives me back an "unknown error so the recording can't start)

I open a network protocol in VLC and i insert the string like
udp://@239.0.0.1:9999
upd://@the ip address of the OBS pc:9999
it starts playing and the minute counter goues up, but no video feed, just the vlc logo in the middle of the screen

can anyone help?

OBS is not an RTMP server. It's an RTMP client, and you will need an RTMP server running on the local machine to do what it appears you're trying to do.
nginx-rtmp is a popular option, and there are many walkthroughs/how-tos out there, but support for it is outside the scope of OBS support.
