From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

i want to share audio over network so that i can use my tv as a wireless speaker. so i chose obs studio to make a stream out of my system audio coz i had it installed already. i went to settings -> output (advanced) -> recording (custom) and set ffmpeg output to output to url and set the url to udp://192.168.43.87:8081 and set container format to mp3 just to get started. so to test things out i ran mpv udp://192.168.43.87:8081 on the same machine and it plays audio. but when i tried accessing it from my android phone with mpv client, it doesnt play the audio, it just shows black screen for while and return to main menu of mpv app. thanks in advance.

iptables:

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere            
ACCEPT     udp  --  anywhere             anywhere            

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         

solution

I set the sender's IP address as output URL in obs studio, thats the issue. To fix this, set the receiver's IP address as output URL. Yeah you can't broadcast with this ig.

Do you have a firewall on 192.168.43.87 that may be blocking external connections?
