There were many people that helped, but giving 90% of the splits to nostr:nprofile1qqszm7l9ew24usqckahx2s4rhpuzz3xatatnty2dhxfpl5jv8v73qmgpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0twzvpk on this one for helping me understand live podcasts.
If you want to hear what I went through it's up at the link below.

I learned a lot listening to this! Being new to the whole streaming so much goes over my head! Finally found how I get an HLS address from Owncast. Going to try in the morning, maybe this is the secret to get Zap.Stream working? Appreciate this is probably super basic info for most folks.
Fingers crossed for tomorrow morning!
Ps. Does anyone know if there’s any docs for Zap.Stream? Can’t see anything on the GitHub.
Oh amazing. Actually, I can probably check now too, let me see if I can bring in my stream endpoint
It works. I entered the url of my HLS manifest into zap stream.
Yes I didntcrealise the hls part was an addition to the url, I was just putting the regular url in! I did search for hls in the Owncast docs a couple of days ago but nothing came up… most likely me being daft.
Just tried it and now my details actually saved so that might just be me set for the morning!
If I go via Zap.Stream does that still mean my initial output from OBS is still a problem? OBS doesn’t natively support HLS apparently so it’s still an rmtp link to the Owncast server.
Oh it's always the basic things. 😀
Aren't you going from pc to owncast to zap? I'd do it that way.
You had mentioned at one point 2 stream keys and two endpoints. I think that's very not typical.
