YT.rexx results in stuttering video [Solved]

Bummer. I made an error in the script again, so it wasn't working anymore with emotion.

Here is the hopefully final version.
/* */
/* videoplayer.rexx */
/* usage: rx videoplayer.rexx <url> <app> silent */
/* <app> can be dv or emo. */
/* when no <app> option is entered, default app is dvplayer  */
/* with silent option, there is no curl cli ouput. */
/* */
options results
parse arg url app silence
if app="silent" then silence="silent"
if app~="emo" then app="dv"
if app="emo" then appfile="APPDIR:Emotion"
if app="dv" then appfile="APPDIR:DvPlayer"
if silence="silent" then opt="-s"
else opt=""
address command
"c:curl" url opt "-o ram:videoplayback"
if app="emo" then do
appfile "ram:videoplayback"
end
else do
"C:wbrun" appfile "ram:videoplayback"
end

checklist:
CALL AddLib('rexxsupport.library',0,-30,0)
check=""
do until check=0
wait 2 /* must be wait 4 on sam460 */
/* say showlist('W','DVPlayer GUI')*/
check=showlist('W','DVPlayer GUI')
end

trash:
wait 2 /* must be wait 4 on sam460 */
"delete ram:videoplayback"
exit

I would like to say a couple of things, based on what it was mentioned before.

In a couple of replies, it was mentioned that the aiostreams website is an Invidious server. Actually, it is not.
But, it uses Invidious servers to get data using their APIs. That's why when the third party Invidious servers are down, I need to switch to different servers that keep on working.


About the tonvid.com, which is a great website, I would like to warn you that by providing the website owner with your API key, you provide them with access to your YouTube accounts. Based on their Privacy policy, they do not mention how they deal with the API keys. They only write the following

Quote:

If I understand correctly, they do collect the API keys, unless if they store it only at the browser local storage or into a cookie. But personally, I cannot be sure about it because they do not clarify how they deal with it.

I am not saying that you shouldn't use tonvid.com, but please check what permissions this API key has in your account and be aware of the danger.


aiostreams website doesn't collect any data. There are some logs of the requests done, but this doesn't include any personal data.

@walkero

From what I understand of it, Tonvid stores the api-key in a cookie.
If for example, you stored the api-key in Odyssey, and you visit Tonvid with IBrowse, the apikey must be entered again in IBrowse.

edit: Tonvid was also used in SMTube.

Would be something else if it would be run in a country without any usable privacy and consumer protections laws, such as North Korea, China, Russia, or the USA.

Quote:Tonvid seems to be a project of the SMPlayer and SMTube developer Ricardo Villalba.

Thanks for clarification (I thought you installed your own invidious server). I'm also using https://invidious.fdn.net wich works flawlessly with Odyssey.

Nah... too much work... And the only thing I needed was just a few data for the videos. My goal was to serve aiostreams, not make a YouTube alternative. But here we are :D :D :D

Thanks for the tip, it works very well with Odyssey.
