FiveM CarPlay Script: Synced YouTube Car Radio

Give every car on your server a working CarPlay screen. Players paste a YouTube link, and the music plays from the car itself: everyone nearby hears the same song, in sync, getting louder as they get closer.

Features

• Synced 3D car audio: the song plays from the vehicle's position, and every nearby player hears it at the same moment. Play, pause and volume changes sync for everyone.
• Hearing range grows with speed: about 10 metres when parked, further when driving fast, so passing cars sound realistic.
• YouTube and direct links: paste a YouTube link or a direct audio URL (for example an MP3).
• Song queue: line up songs, play the next one, or remove songs from the queue.
• Music stays with the car: the song, queue and progress belong to the vehicle. Open CarPlay again in the same car and you see what's playing.
• Vehicle info on screen: car name, engine health and fuel level, next to a progress bar with the song time and a volume slider.
• Clean up automatically: music stops when the car is deleted, and resets when the resource restarts.
• Open with a command or a key: /carplay by default, plus a keybind players can change in their FiveM key settings.

Requirements

• xSound (free), the sound library that plays the audio.
• No framework needed: works on ESX, QBCore, Qbox or any other server.
• No database.

Configuration

shared/config.lua lets you change:

• the command name (default carplay)
• the keybind (or turn it off)
• the notification function, so messages use your server's own notify system
• debug mode

Open source

All Lua code is included and editable, so you can change how it works or connect it to your framework.
