It's kind of the other way round: your custom ffmpeg settings that sends the video data over the network are recording settings, so you have to press the "Start recording" button and not the "Start streaming" button.

Its not working because the article uses the 224.x.x.x IP range which is reserved. Try using the scoped multicast range for organizations instead:
https://www.iana.org/assignments/multicast-addresses/multicast-addresses.xhtml

The IP addresses should work without conflict:
239.0.0.1:Port to 239.255.255.255:Port

If you want to view the stream on another computer, you can use VLC versions over 3.0
Type in this for the URL in OBS:
udp://239.0.0.1:9999?pkt_size=1316 (without pkt_size if not using VLC or if using VLC versions below 3.0)

In VLC, Media | Open Network Stream and click the Network tab. Then use this as the network URL:
udp://@239.0.0.1:9999

You may also need to check your firewall settings too.
