Is there a way to like... play a video through the server block?

Juestan avatar Mar 27 '22 23:03 Juestan

There should be.. Why?

ItsK1tty avatar Mar 27 '22 23:03 ItsK1tty

Do I have to make a custom website with a html5 video player or how do I do this? (Just a suggestion, I don't really know how)

Juestan avatar Mar 28 '22 14:03 Juestan

I believe there's a mod:// page that you can get from miniserv

ItsK1tty avatar Mar 28 '22 14:03 ItsK1tty

So.. can I upload a video directly to the miniserv and then get the url to this file to play it?

Juestan avatar Mar 28 '22 17:03 Juestan

You should be able to, yeah

ItsK1tty avatar Mar 28 '22 17:03 ItsK1tty

Do I have to convert the video, i don't think h.264 will work?

Juestan avatar Mar 28 '22 18:03 Juestan

I'm pretty sure you do

ItsK1tty avatar Mar 28 '22 18:03 ItsK1tty

image So, I uploaded the converted video directly to miniserv and I opened the link to this video. I converted this video with vp8 codec, so it should play but all i get is this

Juestan avatar Mar 28 '22 21:03 Juestan

You sure it's in vp8? Send me the video, you have my discord.

ItsK1tty avatar Mar 28 '22 22:03 ItsK1tty

so what do i convert it to?

@ItsK1tty has created a fork of webdisplays, it supports h.264/265 so you can watch twitch, netflix i guess and other sites

Question, what do you do with their fork to make it work?

Just install it like a normal mod

ItsK1tty avatar Apr 06 '22 00:04 ItsK1tty

I apologize, how do I do that? The fork of webdisplays that I see under your profile downloads as a .zip, and I have no clue what to do with that lmao.

RagerGamer171 avatar Apr 06 '22 01:04 RagerGamer171

If you can forward me to a guide or something, cause I've been looking for the past hour (and I'm definitely doing it wrong), that would be amazing.

Until @montoyo comes back to WebDisplays community, someone named @ds58 forked MCEF and upgraded it to the newer Chromium version (v.100 as of 9 June 2022), and also released macOS and Linux compatible versions. Most Chromium-related issues are solved by downloading his new version of MCEF. More details can be found below: https://github.com/montoyo/mcef/pull/73 https://github.com/ds58/mcef/releases
