Question / Help Using RTMP and TCP MPEG streams as video sources

[Torbjörn Lindström]

Hi!
Is it possible and if so: what is best practice to use external livestreams as sources in OBS studio.
Im interested in using both RTMP and TCP MPEG streams that I collect by urls like:
rtmp://nn.xxx.yyy.zz/path/id
tcp://111.22.333.44:portid

I hope this is possible.
Thanks for any input on this matter!

Found solution. Must use search better next time :-)

Just use media source and uncheck "local". How hard can it be ;-).

But when this is sorted: what are best practice and settings to get the OBS Studio to run as stable as possible? Looking into using Obs for sports broadcasts for a couple of hours at the time.
Any settings that are critical?
