Beat CORS and http/https mismatch into submission. Have a PeerTube instance working with an internationally distrubuted Garage data store. There are so many options in S3 compatible data stores it blows my mind how many people make it rain cash on amazon.
Set it up for some big channel imports to stress test the creation side. Time for a nap.

2024-05-01 18:59:48

bad news:
This intermittant object storage issue between PeerTube and SeaweedFS has beaten me, some instances work without issue, some fail on large files, some fail 20% of the time irregardless of size. I've have tired everything I can think of, even the extreme step of opening issues for help.
good news:
In one night I've made it to the last step of getting Garage FS working with PeerTube. They even have a guide. Now I just need to beat the CORS configuration boss.

Youtube autosync uses a slightly different url format than manual import, fixed that in 0.3.4
Working on automating transcript download from YouTube, running into issue that the API needs a token to set the caption text, but with the autosync there's no live user to provide the token. Either need to figure out a different way to set the caption info or require admin creds in the plugin configuration.

Added automatic syncing of Youtube video ID to extended video data for imported videos in podcast2 plugin v 0.3.3

Not sure if this exists but i'm approaching a need for it.
Creating a vtt transcript from a video & text.
Audiobooks and songs have the text already, it just needs to be timestamped to when it appears in the media file. Logically this should take less CPU and improve accuracy over current blind transcripting services.

There was an issue with the VPS that music.freediverse.com was running on, the drive was misconfigured and thought it had more space than it actually did.

On the self hosting side, currently PeerTube with the Podcast2 plugin sets the type to serial if the medium is set to audiobook. Is that enough to recommend to fiction podcast creators, or are there other specific hosting features needed?
<podcast:medium>audiobook</podcast:medium>
<itunes:type>serial</itunes:type>

for some reason
"⚡" == "⚡"
is false, but,
"⚡".charCodeAt(0) == "⚡".charCodeAt(0)
is true.
Whatever, in other unrelated news, Lightning plugin 5.4.2 pushed to NPM to actually work with lightning addresses.🥺
