I am in need of development recommendations for making a node video player based on media source extensions (similar to what hls.js uses). What I know: I can make a very basic node, e.g. node-red-contrib-pipe2jpeg I have already made a video player (using media source extensions) years ago for li…

No worries about removing sounds. The debate was about having it muted in the ui because of browsers restricting autoplay with sound. The audio track will not be removed, unless you pass the -an flag to ffmpeg. I like the idea of audio as another means of detecting the baddies. I had the thought my…

[image] BartButenaers: Sorry didn't have a chance yet to look at your code. Will review it this weekend! Some feedback about your node. Hopefully you don't interpret this as criticism, because I'm VERY impressed that you learned developing such a heavy node in such a short time!!!!!!!! Mo…

Thanks for the many tidbits of code and the in-depth critique. [image] BartButenaers: Most Node-RED nodes have a similar looking readme page (which sections like 'install', 'usage', 'node properties'...). It might be useful to do it that way Definitely will make a better readme. Was focusing…

[image] kevinGodell: i was unsure if it would use unsafe url characters Morning Kevin, Damn had forgotten about that. When you have a look at the node id, you will see that there is always a dot in the middle: [image] When I use the node id in the url, that works fine (cross-browser) exce…

[image] BartButenaers: Because your node is going to become a popular node About popular nodes. We have to keep in mind that also novice users will like to use your nodes to show their camera streams on their dashboard. But they most probably will quit frustrated during the ffmpeg installat…

Bart, Kevin, the endpoints should be quite simple. The httpadmin ones are protected by the admin auth mechanism, and are for people who should have access to the editor. The others are protected by the http auth and are for users of the flow. So a node that needs to get something from the back end …

Thanks for following this discussion Dave! So then I have been confusing Kevin, and it is fine that he defines the endpoint. That case is closed then... Do you know what the advantage is of removing the routes, like the http-in node? Seems quite some overhead to me, since the :resource parameter…

Because you shouldn’t leave them exposed when you close down. Potential security hole. Ties up resources etc. Memory leak etc

[image] BartButenaers: Ah ok, that is indeed true. But keep in mind that the node.mp4frag can also be used everywhere. And it keeps your config screen simple and less confusing for users. Does this mean that other nodes can easily access the internal mp4frag instance if I attach it to this no…

[image] kevinGodell: Does this mean that other nodes can easily access the internal mp4frag instance if I attach it to this node? Yes indeed. [image] kevinGodell: need the randomly generated id as opposed to a simply named identifier Well by using the id it is rather simple to get the…
