This guide will show how to configure streaming from RadioBOSS to Telegram.

FFMpeg - needed for RTMP streaming support
1. Download FFMpeg from https://www.ffmpeg.org (you will need Windows build) or use the file hosted on our server: https://dl.djsoft.net/ffmpeg.sfx.exe
2. Unpack FFMpeg archive. In the example we'll use C:\ffmpeg location.

RadioBOSS - create an encoder for streaming
The command for streaming is as following:
"C:\ffmpeg\ffmpeg.exe" -stream_loop -1 -re -f s16le -ac {Channels} -ar {SampleRate} -i - -c:v libx264 -preset veryfast -b:v 3500k -maxrate 3500k -bufsize 7000k -pix_fmt yuv420p -g 50 -c:a aac -b:a 160k -ac 2 -ar 44100 -f flv STREAM_URL
Change STREAM_URL to the URL that is Server URL appended by Stream Key, the resulting STREAM_URL should look like:
rtmps://dc4-1.rtmp.t.me/s/2048519629:ABCD-EFGH

In RadioBOSS, open Settings and navigate to the Broadcasting. Press the Advanced button and then press the Custom encoders button.

In the custom encoders window press the + button, name the encoder ("TG Live" in the example) and enter the command.

* The command will look like this
"C:\ffmpeg\ffmpeg.exe" -stream_loop -1 -re -f s16le -ac {Channels} -ar {SampleRate} -i - -c:v libx264 -preset veryfast -b:v 3500k -maxrate 3500k -bufsize 7000k -pix_fmt yuv420p -g 50 -c:a aac -b:a 160k -ac 2 -ar 44100 -f flv rtmps://dc4-1.rtmp.t.me/s/2048519629:ABCD-EFGH

RadioBOSS - start streaming
1. Add new encoder in RadioBOSS. Enter [IA]:8000:50 to the Server field.
2. At the bottom, select the "TG Live" encoder. Make sure the rest of the settings are at their defaults: sample rate is 44100, channels - stereo, bitrate - 128 kbps. Click OK.
3. Start music playback in RadioBOSS.
On successful connection, the report in the bottom-left corner will show the following message: Connected to server! (output N)

Telegram

Hello, I try with the given configuration and the codes of my test group on telegram, but telgram tells me that it cannot find the flow even though the server address and the key are correct

What am I doing wrong?

I think you should re-check all the settings, also see in the log if there are any error messages.
