GitHub - pion/rtwatch: Watch videos with friends using WebRTC, let the server do the pausing and seeking.

Watch videos with friends using WebRTC, let your backend do the pausing and seeking.

Using Pion WebRTC and GStreamer you can now watch videos in real-time with your friends. 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. 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. Instructions Docker This requires host networking to be enabled. By default it is off on macOS at this time. By default this will work on Linux out of the box. git clone https://github.com/pion/rtwatch.git cd rtwatch docker build . -t rtcwatch docker run --net=host -it rtcwatch
