stefansundin / guess-ytlive-url.py

Last active April 16, 2016 01:42

Python script to hax YouTube Live segments that are no longer accessible via the playlist. See http://stefansundin.com/blog/452#comments

	# https://gist.github.com/stefansundin/6261442
	# Python 3.x
	# Binary search for the correct clen parameter for YouTube live streams, which is useful when a segment is no longer listed in the playlist file (check EXT-X-EARLIEST-MEDIA-SEQUENCE).
	# It's quick and dirty. clen is always a multiple of 188 (since it is TS). lmt and dur does not have any impact it seems.
	# Usually finds the correct url in about 15 tries.
	# See http://stefansundin.com/blog/452#comments
	# TODO: add threading to process multiple sequence numbers at the same time.

PHP script that converts GData feeds for YouTube Live events to human readable feeds.

	Converts GData feeds for YouTube Live events to human readable feeds.
	http://stefansundin.com/blog/476
	https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_protocol_retrieving_live_events

	Use this url to get data for streams that no longer appear in any of the feeds:
	https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/CHANNELNAME/live/videos/VIDEOID?v=2
	It does not appear to contain all of the info though. Replace CHANNELNAME and VIDEOID.

stefansundin / svnsync.php

Last active December 15, 2015 07:38

This is a PHP script that can process PostCommitWebHooks from Google Code Project Hosting.

	<?php
	/*

	https://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/PostCommitWebHooks

	To use PHP to verify the authentication hash, you can do this. It supports multiple projects and can also run svnsync. However, this requires you to make your web server user (often 'www-data') to be able to launch svnsync without sudo having to ask for a password:

	$ sudo visudo
	Then add this to the bottom (it's important that it is in the bottom!):
	www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/svnsync
