Web Streamer

A mod to display live streams in-game.

Web Display block

This mod adds a single item -for now-, called "Web Display". It's a resizable and directional block that allows you to display HLS video streams but also static images. This type of stream is mostly used by Twitch. The Web Display block supports two modes: raw HLS url (.m3u8 file) and Twitch channel with quality. The audio distance and volume is configurable in the display configuration as well as its size.

Supported systems

For now, and in order to distribute a single JAR file, this mod supports a limited set of systems because of the size of the FFmpeg library and other native binaries that needs to be bundled with it:

  • Linux arm64
  • Linux x86_64
  • OSX arm64 (M1 support)
  • OSX x86_64
  • Windows x86_64

If your platform is not supported, please open an issue on GitHub, we need to know which systems are missing. However, x86 (32bits) systems might never be supported, or only in a separated JAR file.

Supported languages

This project uses languages files for user interface texts, and currently supports french (france) and english (us).

Problems reporting

The technology behind it is very complicated to get the video playing at the right frame rate with a synchronized audio. This might not work for all of you, so if you encounter problems, please report them on the issue tracker with the logs file of the session that didn't work.
