Stream videos with FiveM (GTAV)

Watch videos with friends in FiveM by playing from path/url or streaming with OBS.

Install

1. Clone or download the required files
2. Edit the .env file (see Configuration)
3. Start the resource

ensure video-stream

When started, the yarn resource should automatically install the required dependencies. If the installation fails you can do so manually with npm i and remove the yarn dependency from fxmanifest.lua. Note that npm is required to manually install the dependencies.

Streaming

The /video-stream command will teleport your player to the cinema.

The /video-stream:set command can play videos by path/url

• /video-stream:set "https://example.com/video.mp4"
• /video-stream:set D:\video.mp4
• /video-steam:set without arguments stops playback.

To publish to the optional RTMP server configure OBS and Start Streaming.

Service: Custom Streaming Server
Server: rtmp://localhost/live
Stream key: STREAM_NAME?secret=secret

Configuration

PORT=3000 # The port the HTTP and WebSocket server should listen on (open this port)
RTMP_ENABLED=1 # Whether the RTMP server should be enabled (optional*)
RTMP_PORT=1935 # The port the RTMP server should listen on (open this port*)
RTMP_SECRET=secret # A secret required to publish videos to the RTMP server
STREAM_PATH=rtmp://localhost:1935/live/STREAM_NAME # The RTMP stream path

It's recommended to disable the RTMP feature if you aren't intending to stream from OBS. At the very least change the RTMP_SECRET
