Video/Media Behaviors about zimit HOT 7 CLOSED

@ikreymer What is the details nature of the problem we deal with here? I kind of assumed videos were working as this one of the first impressive things we had in the dev of warc2zim.

I couldn't capture lesfondamentaux with current zimit. It doesn't capture the video. Tried with embed page as well. It seems that the JS code create the <video /> tag so maybe it's a --waitUntil issue? How did you create yours?

This is not yet fully finished, but should work on lesfondamentaux.

Try the latest version from this branch: https://github.com/openzim/zimit/tree/config-opts

The command line I used was:

docker run -d -v  ${PWD}/output:/output --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --shm-size=1gb openzim/zimit --workers 6 --url  https://lesfondamentaux.reseau-canope.fr/accueil.html

You can add a --limit 200 to just try a few pages.

(Edit: probably a few hundred is a good limit, not 20 as that will only get the category pages).

OK, FYI, didn't work on the embed URL

docker build . -t zimit && \
    docker run -v $HOME/data/zimit/out:/output \
    --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --shm-size=1gb zimit \
    --workers 6 --limit 200 --url https://lesfondamentaux.reseau-canope.fr/embed/limparfait-un-temps-regulier.html

Maybe there's something different about the embed. I'll check again on next iteration.

FYI I launched it on whole fondamentaux with lastest code and it worked fine.

Autoplaying of youtube and regular videos (that don't preload) will likely be needed for at least the following sites:

• https://www.der-postillon.com/
• https://edu.gcfglobal.org/en/topics/
• https://manioc.org/

and possibly a few others that use video. The goal is to ensure youtube videos autoplay and other videos started manually as well.

Sorry, forgot to respond! The default behavior already captures videos that autoplay on their own with a <video> tag, such as fondamentaux.
This new work also captures videos that don't autoplay (by grabbing the URL directly) and also videos with custom embeds, like youtube.
