VRChat World Domain Settings

If the host name in a Nyan Streaming playback URL is not on VRChat’s default allowlist, you must configure the world and the viewer according to the instance type.

The following applies when using a domain that is not on VRChat’s default allowlist.

  1. Sign in to the official VRChat website.
  2. Select the target world under My Worlds, then open Edit World Info.
  3. In the Nyan Streaming dashboard, find the RTSP, RTSPT, HLS, or other playback URL you will actually use.
  4. Add only the URL’s host name to Video Player Allowed Domains, then save the world information.
  5. Verify playback in a Public or Group Public instance.

Each viewer must enable Allow Untrusted URLs in VRChat Settings. If this setting is disabled, the video will not play even when the world creator has added the domain.

  • If playback fails only in Public / Group Public, check the world’s allowed-domain entry.
  • If playback fails for one user in every instance type, check that user’s Allow Untrusted URLs setting.
  • If the URL uses a short link or redirect, also verify the final host name that the player connects to.
  • For player-specific low-latency settings, see Video Player Settings / Checks.
