[NSFW] Hypothetical "adult" version of VLC

Postby RobinHood2021 » 23 Jul 2021 22:20

Searching the source code of VLC media player for the string "YouTube" gives me an extensive list of instances as shown in this text document. https://1drv.ms/t/s!Aj9V_5x2ju0Xp8QaL4q ... w?e=eg2RFb

Theoretically speaking, if I wanted to fork VLC media player and create my own "adult" version (which I have no intention to publish; this is for my own personal use) that can open videos from adult sites such as PornHub, XVideos, etc.: Where would I need to place the code to fetch videos from those sites?

In whichever directory the youtube.luac is, e.g. for me

Code: Select all

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/vlc/lua/playlist/

Yeh... nope. Looking through the source of the PornHub homepage as well as the youtube.lua file, I'm discovering that the former is convoluted as all h-e-double hockey sticks, and the latter looks to me to be bloated. And that may contribute to why people are saying VLC itself is bloated.
