A common way players have done it is to upload the movie to Dropbox. Once done, copy the link to it and paste it into LOCAL CHAT while standing in a theater. The server will process the link and hopefully play it.

If you use a free dropbox account, it's probably best to delete the movie afterwards as you will quickly hit your daily bandwith quota on Dropbox.



Another method is to live stream using RTMP. You can do several Google searches, or ask a few players who do this already, to try and setup RTMP for live streaming to the server.

Once RTMP is setup, you could use software like OBS to live stream, paste the link into the LOCAL CHAT while standing in a theater to show your stream. Then from your desktop, you could play your movie.

I wouldn't suggest live streaming to Twitch or YouTube, since they'll probably give you warnings / close your account.

How do you copy and paste in chat? It doesn't seem to let me since it doesn't give the prompt "Copy&Paste" when I right click the chat box like how it would be vanilla. Help?
