  • chat-player
    • displays chat replay in sync with a video playing in VLC
  • comment-viewer
    • displays comments, replies, and likes.
  • info-display
    • displays description, likes/dislikes, views, and other metadata
    • subscriber counts, views, etc are from when the video was archived, not released (or live updating).

you will need to enable VLC's http server, and set a password. put the password in a file named password.txt

files should be in a folder, named as follows, with <id> being the video's ID (after the watch?v= part):

<id>.<video>
<id>.description (optional)
<id>.info.json
<id>.live_chat.json

this is just for my personal video archive. i may make the code better someday. but not today.
