    This is a simple API that allows you to play videos onto a map. It utilizes the Xuggler library in order to decode videos and convert them into images, which are then sent to the client through the use of ProtocolLib.

    Source Code

    Video



    Usage

    It's actually pretty easy to use. Here's an example:
    Code:java
    1.  
    2. Player player = Bukkit.getPlayer("PlayerName");
    3.  
    4. ItemStack is = player.getInventory().getItemInHand();
    5.  
    6. if (is != null && is.getType() == Material.MAP)
    7. {
    8.  
    9. MapView map = Bukkit.getMap(is.getDurability());
    10.  
    11. Video vid = new FileVideo(new File("filename"));
    12. vid.start();
    13.  
    14. VideoSender.startSending(vid, map, player);
    15.  
    16. }
    17.  

    Remember to put this in your plugin.yml file:
    Code:
    depend: [BukkitTube]
    

    Downloads


    BukkitTube-0.0.1.jar
    BukkitTubeExample.jar


    Current Problems
    • Uses a lot of CPU/RAM (depending on the video)
    • Uses a lot of bandwidth (depending on the video)
    • Does not work well with Windows-based servers
    Due to these major problems, I would not recommend this for actual use at this time.

    No offense but your FPS sucks: https://www.youtube.com/md5encryption
    NB: Those videos all have a slight FPS drop towards the end as I didn't film after fixing the bug

    Also live emulator input ftw!

    No offense taken.

    However, that video was actually using an older version. I have uploaded a new video (updated post) that reflects the newer version. The older version used MapRenderer, which I found to be not really ideal for sending video.

    Awesome! How come you didn't release it? :(

    Cause the code is.. somewhere, and as I did it before proto lib existed it used a modified CB
     
  9. it doesn't look like the source is complete (it contains an empty onenable)

    It is complete. "onEnable" is empty because BukkitTube has no actual function, except to provide a way for other plugins to hook into it and play videos to players. Have a look at the example on GitHub.

    Because it's like an API? So that we don't have to go through the trouble of figuring it out ourselves, and use a resource Mitch528 kindly shared with us?

    No, the onEnable.

    It is AMAZING!!! Probably heavy for server when more players watch it (might be heavy a bit for client too). No matter how heavy it is I can say only one thing - AMAZING!

    I am interested to know how server-heavy and cilent-intensive this is. Would it cause the whole server to lag as a whole, or just the cilent?

    Why don't you try it?

    I would not be surprised if both. It will be heavier on the server, that's a definite thing.

    Shouldnt audio be possible now because of the new resourcepacks?

    The users would have to download a custom resourcepack.. Only if there were resourcepack packets :p

    I think it might be possible but just for one movie with sound, because downloading so big resource pack is not the best thing. However it is really nice idea to add sounds for even one movie, it could be used for beginners tutorial on some servers etc.. I am looking forward to see some nice usage of this.

    I can't seem to get it to run with my plugin, when doing /loadvideo I get a map without any video on it.
    It just shows a map of where I am.

    Edit: I managed to fix it, but my game crashes now. Maybe its out of date?
