Hello.
I am not an expert in programming under Enigma2. So I ask for advice from the more experienced Enigma2 programmers. I've just created a simple plugin for testing.
I'm looking for a way to run a Youtube video from a certain position (not from the beginning). I can translate the original Youtube link to the Youtube streaming link. This can be done by using the imported "youtube_dl" python module (source: github / youtube-dl) or via imported code (as a module) from the original Youtube plug-in. Unfortunately, in the "youtube-dl" project, it is not possible to get a streaming video link directly from the specified position.
Is there a way to start a Youtube video from a certain position? (of course streaming URL, after translation from the original Youtube URL, which is determined by its video-ID code)
Or run a stream in Enigma2, and then set a new stream position immediately?
I have also searched for a code on the github server (Youtube plug-in), but I did not understand much :-). I found only a video shift left / right. Unfortunately, it does not work. I do not know how exactly the "4097 service" in Enigma is used to play the online stream. Is it at all possible to start the stream from a certain position?
Thanks.
Here is the plugin code example:
