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:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

#### from __future__ import unicode_literals
from youtube_dl import YoutubeDL                 # opkg update && opkg install python-youtube-dl

def ytStreamURL(video_id = ''):           # video_id = youtube URL link or video-ID only, to translate into streaming youtube URL
    ydl_opts = {'format': 'bestvideo+bestaudio', 'verbose': True}
    data = video_url = audio_url = ''
    with YoutubeDL(ydl_opts) as ydl:
        data = ydl.extract_info(video_id, download=False)
    if not data:
        return ''
    data = data['formats']
    for row in data:         # browse thorough all possible formats (audio+video / video / audio tracks)
        if not video_url and row['format_id'] == '137' or row['format_id'] == '136':  video_url = row['url']            # '22'
        if not audio_url and row['format_id'] == '140' or row['format_id'] == '171':  audio_url = row['url']
    if video_url and audio_url:
        return str(video_url + '&suburi=' + audio_url)        # return the two URL streams - joined as together with the "&suburi=" parameter
    else:
        return ''

Just why you need this thing? The speeding works perfectly. With 2x or 4x or 16x or ... velocity you will find quickly your desired location.

Hi. Thanks for the answers.

 

I have tried the doSeek and doSeekRelative methods, unfortunately without success. Then I've also tried those rewind and forward video shifting methods that you're showing, but nothing else. There will probably be a poorly implemented class of Athan........ whose authorship does not belong to me. It is taken from another plugin (only for testing, of course, I will build my own class later).

 

I really do not know how to do it. I have also seen the Youtube plug-in code (Taapat/github), which also has its Screen to play video, but there is only a short video shift. And even so I dont know use it in Athan........ class code :). It did not work.

On dash mp4 streams in gstreamer are problems with seek.
You can try in my plugin. If in your chosen video seek is working, then doSeek or doSeekRelative also should work.
