This is a lightweight media library that loads iframes from video streaming sites. Only one static html file required. Customizable through external modules.
To get some actual content in the media center it depends on something to call _smc.addSource('src') and then _smc.addVideo({'title':'..', 'img':'..'}, 'src').
Included are a couple example modules for content loading (movs720p.mod.js, movs1080p.mod.js), and the following modules to provide additional functionality:
(Note that the project is in development and the exposed _smc functions or dispatched events may still be changed without notice.)
| mod | description |
|---|---|
| filter.mod.js | Provides genre filters and sorting by rating and year. (Depends on content module adding appropriate jquery data properties.) |
| filterexpired.mod.js | Adds a filter that parses googlevideo links to hide the expired ones. |
| gpad.mod.js | Gamepad control for Chrome. Select with dpad, play with A, close player with B, triggers scroll the page. (Only tested with Xbox360 controller) |
| loadinfo | When video is played uses imdb id to load info from imdbapi.com. (This is module was hardcoded to test/demonstrate that modules don't necessarily require separate files but can live in localstorage.) |
| imdbrss.mod.js | Filters movies by a list RSS feed created at IMDb http://www.imdb.com/help/show_leaf?listfaq |
| mgr.mod.js | Lists loaded mods in the UI and provides controls for removing and adding new mods. |
| mobile.mod.js | Improves mobile usability (changes header bar into a menu when window width < 520px) |
| multi.mod.js | Support for opening multiple players in draggable layers (alt+h or alt+t to reorder the layers) |
| remember.mod.js | Stores and restores values from input elements that have class "remember". |
| seen.mod.js | Provides filtering for seen movies. Adds checkboxes to each video element and stores which videos user has checked in localStorage. |
| vttlivecomms.mod.js | Asks vttlive chrome extension for information on the video state at given intervals and remembers those for later use (like restoring unfinished video position). (TODO: once vttlive supports load time injection we can disable video autoplay and add a poster image.) |
After git clone run grunt. It combines css and js files from src/ to index.html, copy that file along with chosen modules to a chosen host.
Notice that if you open the media library to browser directly from local disk some videostreaming services might not work as they e.g. might require a Referrer header that wouldn't be present, so prefer using over http.
- multi.mod.js: due to mouse coordinate issues dragging players is implemented differently in Firefox and Chrome
- filter.mod.js: reversing filters is not very useful, e.g. excluding a genre by selecting one genre and reverse causes "hide seen" filter to also reverse and show seen movies, TODO: allow reversing of individual filters
- remember.mod.js: restoring options is tied to optionschange event, which might be missed if remember.mod.js ends up loading last (meaning that src from previous use might not be selected and videos are not listed until user selects a src)
