Hey,
So I came across this solution last week using MonaServer. Maybe I can help here.
I can confirm that not only can I wirelessly stream my GoPro Hero 8 Back to MonaServer, which is then captured on my OBS scene, I can also create a second feed with a 2nd GoPro Hero 8 Black and have that in a separate scene in OBS.
Basically I wanted to have two camera angles for my livestream as it is more interesting to occasionally switch views for the audience. So I did some experimentation and after about 30 minutes had something working great.
Here's how you do it:
1.) Unpack two separate copies of MonaServer, keep one as default called "Camera One - 1395" and rename the second folder "Camera Two - 1396"
2.) Go into the Camera two folder and edit the default ports used for RTMP from 1395 to 1396 (which will be the next free port on your machine)
3.) Launch the GoPro app on your phone, connect to Live as normal, but make sure you stipulate rtmp://yourmachineip/live:1395 (append :1395 to the end)
4.) When the stream is running, see it in MonaServer as a connected client and then connect to it in OBS as a VLC Source, using the exact same URL with :1395 appended to the end.
5.) Force Quit the GoPro app on your phone, the stream will continue from the camera - it doesn't care about your phone.
6.) Re-launch the GoPro app on your phone and repeat step 3 but use :1396 instead of :1395
7.) Repeat step 4 in the same fashion.
8.) Force Quit the GoPro app on your phone.
Et voila!
Two GoPro Hero 8 Black cameras connected using 2 x MonaServer(s) listening on two separate ports connected over Wi-Fi independently of your phone app.
As for the comments about the 3000ms delay, this isn't a problem for me as I need to sync audio from another source for my live streams anyway.
PS: If anyone struggles with the changes needed to the MonaServer config file let me know and I'll share the changes I made, but it was pretty simple, just look for RTMP and 1395.
Good luck!
Kind regards,
James
