Watch your favorite movie perfectly synchronized with multiple viewers. If someone pauses it pauses for everyone, and no one can and no one fast forward only their video.\n\n*rtwatch* is different then any other solution because all state is stored on the backend. Only the current audio/video frame is being sent to the viewers, there is no way they can download/cache the videos either for future usage.\n\n## Instructions\n### Install GStreamer\n#### Debian/Ubuntu\n`sudo apt-get install libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-plugins-good gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly`\n#### Windows MinGW64/MSYS2\n`pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gstreamer mingw-w64-x86_64-gst-libav mingw-w64-x86_64-gst-plugins-good mingw-w64-x86_64-gst-plugins-bad mingw-w64-x86_64-gst-plugins-ugly`\n\n##### Error Handling\n\n   pkg-config --cflags  -- gstreamer-1.0 gstreamer-app-1.0\n   pkg-config: exec: \"pkg-config\": executable file not found in %PATH%\n\n\u003e After gstreamer installation,SET the `PATH` variable to `C:/{path to gstreamer}/bin`\n\n   Sorry, unimplemented: 64 bit mode not compiled in\n\n\u003e RUN `$ g++ -v`\n\n\u003e CHECK Target- x86_64-w64-mingw32(Required).\n\n  if not Download using [this](https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win32/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/installer/mingw-w64-install.exe/download)\n\n\n#### macOS\n```\nbrew install gst-plugins-good pkg-config gst-plugins-bad gst-plugins-ugly\nexport PKG_CONFIG_PATH=\"/usr/local/opt/libffi/lib/pkgconfig\"\n```\n\n### Download and build rtwatch\n```\ngit clone https://github.com/pion/rtwatch.git\ncd rtwatch\ngo build .\n```\n\n### Play your video\n```\n./rtwatch -container-path=/home/sean/video.mp4\n\u003e Video file '/home/sean/video.mp4' is now available on ':8080', have fun!\n```\n\n### Watch your video with friends!\nOpen [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080) and hit play. Open it in multiple tabs so you can see how it syncs between multiple viewers.\n\nYou also have the option to Seek/Play/Pause! Press those buttons and watch the video state change for every viewer at the same time.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpion%2Frtwatch","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpion%2Frtwatch","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpion%2Frtwatch/lists"}
