Wetfish Sync v0.2

Synchronize HTML5 audio and video between friends!

Prerequisite Packages

  • ffmpeg and ffprobe, Sync uses shell commands in order to determine the length of audio and video files

How to use

  • clone the repository
  • cd sync
  • npm install
  • copy .env.example to .env and edit it to suit your needs
  • place mp4,ogv,mp3,flac,oga,wav,webm, or ogg files within /public/media. Files will be played in lexicographic order. A simple way to ensure they are played in the desired order is to prefix the name with a number, e.g. to play foo.mp4 before bar.webm, you would name them 01_foo.mp4 and 02_bar.webm.
  • npm start

M3U support

-in order to use an m3u file feature simply start sync like this 'npm run start -- --m3u=/path/to/playlist.m3u' or node server.js --m3u="path/to/playlist.m3u8" where root is the public folder.

-the m3u file can be located anywhere on the system, however the files it refrences must be in the public directory. otherwise you'll have a black screen, and a file name that says it's playing on the server backend.

-.webm and .ogg are unsupported filetypes if using the m3u option.
