Can OBS Studio also receive a stream and give it to a Decklink for display? That would be perfect, but I had the impression that it could stream out, but not receive...
If you have the url that worked in VLC for playback, you might try that in the VLC source in OBS Studio (make sure you have VLC 32/64bit version matched with OBS Studio).
The media source(beside vlc source) in OBS Studio is somewhat limited in terms of input options so it might not accept your streaming parameters if it is more than a complicated url.
A other option would be to get your url on the remote site to be played with ffplay/ffmpeg if that works on your screen, you can use ffmpeg to listen to your remote site and create a simple multicast transport stream with codec copy to your localhost and that localhost link can be openend in media source in OBS Studio. I can only post you the details of the ffmpeg output part and instructions to add the media source in OBS Studio, but the ffmpeg input/receiving part you have to figure out yourself (we use youtube-dl as a piped source to ffmpeg).
