Current guidance on Brainflow to LSL

Hi. I'm looking to integrate with Psychopy, and will require marker files to be integrated into the EEG data stream (yes, I understand the timing issues and that there are hardware solutions recommended, we're not looking to use those for now). My understanding is the OpenBCI GUI can't directly access the markers from Psychopy:

e.g., sent via a separate LSL stream, so the best option is to send the OpenBCI data via LSL and compile in a third party viewer? I saw in this thread,

https://openbci.com/forum/index.php?p=/discussion/2908/streaming-through-gui-4-2-lsl-with-timestamp-problem

from 2021 that "using the GUI to route full Time Series data is not advised. I would use BrainFlow Python + LSL for Python to stream to LabRecorder." Is this still current? Or is it now OK to directly use the networking widget from the GUI to send a full data stream to LSL?
