This is a plugin and server for the plugin for Better Discord that lets you share your screen.
DISCLAMER: This is untested on OSX but the paths are set up correctly for OSX.
Click the screenshare button in the top right corner to start and stop the screen share. The video will appear in the chat and only in the one that it was started in.
-
Sometimes the video will be blank, There is no way I can fix this since the problem is with the media server.
-
The media server has a memory leak, so every time that the screen share stops it will restart kurento. That's why there is a sudo password environment variable.
-
When you use the installer Nginx might not start so you have to restart Nginx.
Make sure you are on Ubuntu 14 or 16.04 since this will not work with any other version of linux or ubuntu. This program is made to run on a server thats not on your network. So it might not work if your running this on a computer in your network.
Run my automatic installer to install the dependencies, set up nginx, and generate a certificate. If there are any errors please contact me at support@nerdfox.me or open an issue.
- Run the command below and substitute the variables with the information.
- When it generates the certificate, follow the prompts.
- use "sudo systemctl [start, stop, restart] screenshare" to control the server.
- Go into the html folder and move ScreenShare.plugin.js to your better discord folder. Plugin Installer Here
