Can't get this to work

[alkaris2]

I tried this out to see if I could get VR Chat in-game media to play, but I've had nothing but issues with getting it to work.

So my process was that I created a light Apache server with httpd I made sure to dump the PHP file into server directory, set in the Program.cs file the server IP, once compiled with monodevelop I loaded up VR Chat and loaded into a world that has video/music media players, I made sure I added GST_DEBUG=5 WINEDEBUG=+mfplat and --enable-debug-gui to the Launch Options just to be sure, and disabled after trying things out. As I check the debug console log I end up getting errors as it cannot open the media streams, which are of course encoded in the .m3u8 format. I tried in a different world where it let me load media from a YouTube URL instead, and the result was that it failed to decode the URL, or ended up with Access Denied, I did check if it was a permissions problem of the server directory, but it had write access enabled.

I've updated everything to reference yt-dlp now so use that if you aren't already. Check each step along the way to make sure each part is working correctly. Test the webserver by opening http://localhost/VRCYoutubedl.php?url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ and make sure it is only returning a url to a video. Test the stub exe to make sure it's doing the same yt-dlp.exe --get-url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ. If both are working corretly check your VRChat log located here %AppData%/../LocalLow/VRChat/VRChat/output_log_*.txt for a more detailed error.

When I do try to open up the test server with the URL it just shows me the php script. When I just run yt-dlp it returns the URL, but still in VRChat it fails to load anything, it just gets Sync Timeout.

Here's the log output I've received from VRChat. output_log_07-33-22.txt

$ wine ./yt-dlp.exe --get-url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOwCyNR4yfc

It looks like your websever doesn't have PHP installed/configured, it should be returning the output of yt-dlp not the contents of the PHP script.
