Hello, all. I was following this guide:
obsproject.com
Just testing to see if I could stream from one PC on my LAN to another. The idea was to stream a MAME game to VLC on my laptop while playing, and have OBS on the laptop use VLC as a source and subsequently stream from the laptop to the internet (i have synchronous gigabit internet).
I followed the guide to the letter, and VLC believes it is receiving a stream, but I get no sound or audio when using udp://@:9999 as the source, per the guide. The timer in VLC continues to go up, unless I stop the recording in OBS on the first PC. Both are running Manjaro Linux KDE, all up to date.
Thinking perhaps I was just trying to send too much over the pipe, I tried just putting a terminal in OBS and streaming that to VLC on the laptop, and I got the same results.
Here's the last log:
Any ideas?
Thanks

Instead of using OBS in the usual way of sending out an rtmp stream, the custom ffmpeg output offers us even more output protocols that we can use. In this guide I will use UDP as an example. (A full list of supported protocols can be found here...
