This script allows to update a text file with the music currently played from a one-video music mix (from Youtube or from a file for instance), by submitting an URL of a Youtube video mixes. Usually, its description contains a list of chapters following this format: "timecode Music name". This project can be seen as a complement (or not) of Snip, and can be used for streamers to display music name.
- Youtube URL is passed as argument and the script automatically parses the description field to get the chapters
- Parsed chapters list can follows different formats (pattern)
- If the parsed description contains to chapter list, the user has a second attempt to paste the chapter list if it is written in a commentary for example
- Format the output file text in a customized way (artist name, album, mix name, separation...)
- A file is used to store the configuration of the script, config.ini
- Manually pause and play the time counting: manual synchronization between the output file text and the listened music
- Detect pause on Youtube video/media: automatic synchronization
- Use python3
- Call these pip install:
pip install --upgrade google-api-python-client
pip install --upgrade google-auth-oauthlib google-auth-httplib2
pip install --upgrade requests
pip install --upgrade numpy- Add a JSON credential file _credentials/google-api-key.json coming from Google Developper Console. A project is needed and you will need to setup a OAuth 2.0 client ID. Visit the Youtube API v3 documentation for further information.
I need more information on this file, maybe it can be pushed on Git... More news coming
- Modify config.ini to set the path of your output file. You can if you want too modify the verbosity level of the app.
- Run timeSnip:
python timeSnip.py <YoutubeURL> [prefix]
