not sure about the specifics of your situation but i've configured this setup:

https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/set-up-a-streaming-rtmp-server/

and it works fantastic.. i used it for live streaming DJ sets and farting
around in video games in a semi-private way (non-twitch/youtube.. no copyright
strikes and other lameness)

in particular using OBS.. i have a feeling if you were to use OBS, set up a
light-weight video player (mpv?) to play forever (endless loop of a playlist)
and have OBS stream it's window and maybe the system audio.. you'd end up with
something a little more versatile than VLC..

i've used VLC's streaming at various times and it's been hit-or-miss. at least
if you can't get OBS working you have 10000x more people who are familiar with
it. people make money with OBS so things get sussed out quick.
