I've had users of my service request support for AVPro , for the purpose of playing back live videos in VRChat on Steam. I've had similar requests from several unity developers, although usually I just point them in the direction of a CEF-plugin. I can't really offer that in the context of VRChat it seems though.

My service is the free-to-use OBS.Ninja (https://github.com/steveseguin/obsninja/), which lets a user publish a clean ultra-low latency video stream from one user to numerous others, using WebRTC.

The basis of how it works is simple. You have two weblinks; a push link and a view link. Videos are played back full-screen, with no overlays, so you shouldn't need to hunt for a video tag to playback. Instead, you'd just take a raw capture of the window output and display that; this allows for mixing of multiple video elements. Ideally, auto-play for videos would be allowed, so no interaction needed for playback to start/finish. All settings and controls can be passed to the player via URL-based arguments. (bitrate, codec, scale, etc).

Users usually use it for pulling remote videos from guests into OBS/VMIX, although it can be used for private and free broadcasting to small groups (around 10 to 30). A similar service of mine, also free, is meshcast.io, which is designed for more basic mass-broadcasting of low-bitrate live webRTC video; it works in a similar way, but does have a static video tag available for discovery and playback.

Happy to make changes to my code base to help make supporting this request feasible.
