Question / Help OBS studio rtmp to hls with NGINX or FFMPEG

[ze rondeau]

hello ,

I am using OBS studio with a small movie in loop for test ( MP4 H.264 aac)

basically I 'm trying to generate an HLS stream with playlist using Nginx on window 7 x64.

I have Nginx for window version 1.11.6 with rtmp library include.

I am not able to find a nginx.conf that work on window.

I am running nginx and OBS studio 17.0 on the same computer.

url : rtmp://localhost:1935/live
streamkey : test
folder : C:\Nginx

someone can share is conf file ?

thanks

ze

This is not really an OBS related question. You will need to do your own research. The link I provided should get you started.

hi ,

from your link, I did managed to get it work, thank you.

I have spent 2 days on this problem, gathering informations from the forum, and in Nginx website, Arut git.
nginx with rtmp compiled on window is pretty obscure.

you are right, it is not a problem with OBS studio.
it was more on how to connect OBS with nginx and to get it work on windows for HLS output.

I have included my nginx.conf if this can help someone.

thank you very much for your help

Finally ... the only one setting is working ... but only with VLC ...
I can't use HTML Video tag ... it returns always black
