I have been looking for ways to create a video downloader for myself using FPC/Lazarus. I already created a video editor using PasLibVlc and ffmpeg and it works pretty well for what I want to do. It needs VLC to be installed in order to show videos and adjust playback speed and audio sync etc.
I also would like to make a video downloader with functions not found in programs like for example youtube-dl, specifically being able to download from a streaming site starting from past times. But it clearly should be possible since the browsers (both Chrome and Firefox) have the ability of moving backwards inside the stream and view stuff that was played say a couple of hours ago. Now I have seen a project on-line which uses C# and apparently the Chrome API (since it is a requirement to have Chrome installed). But the author has not published any sources so I cannot see *how* it is being done... And I cannot use that product because I need the downloader to be running on Linux. Is there someone here who has used the Chrome API with Lazarus for anything video related and is willing to share? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
