stream to a smart-TV?? / Local stream

[Insano]

Hello! I am not sure if this is the right place to make all these questions but any help is appreciated:

Is it possible to stream to a smart TV? If it is possible, what's the best and easiest way to do it?

I have 2 or 3 different things I need to show but each one of them has to be shown in a different TV. So basically:
Thing A = TV 1
Thing B = TV 2
Thing C = TV 3

Is this doable via local streaming?

pd: I am totally new to OBS

This is what I do Thing A = TV 1:
1. Set OBS to stream to local NGINX server (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJaz59ZHgCo )
2. Use VLC to open local network stream
3. In VLC set the Playback Renderer to a Chromecast. If your TV has VLC or something to play rtmp streams, you can just set it to local server.

Having Thing A, B and C going to different TVs would require multiple instances of OBS because OBS can only render 1 thing at a time.

use on computer local nginx-rtmp, change rtmp to hls (easy on nginx-rtmp) build website with player, open website on tv and play.

Thanks! Will watch the video for sure.

Is it possible to make a slideshow? That way it would be easier/better to make that and show A,B & C (1 render) in different TVs

Yes, if they're images, you can use Image Slide Show source. If it's something else, you can use Advanced Scene Switcher to change scenes every X number of seconds. All TVs would show the same thing.
