Sleazy Fork

Great update! Lots of new functionality! There so much I like about this update: the clickable users list with "(Followed)" info for users in a room, the password room info (if the room is broadcasting or not = great), the alarm feature, all the settings toggle switches neatly placed in the Account Menu, the extra info on offline profile pages including a clickable link to enter fullvideo chatroom offline, token count in a chatroom... Really good!



It's still missing a few features I rely on from the other big CB script on Sleazy Fork (the one you found the privacy issue with, "Chaturbate Enhancer")..

1) Auto-reload profile page on room_status==online! The alarm is a good idea, but if I'm currently on one offline CB profile page, I'd prefer the page to auto-refresh when a broadcaster starts streaming, rather than playing an alarm.

2) Record video function!

What do you think about those features from Chaturbate Enhancer? I think the way that script does these 2 functions is good and could work in your script too! What do you think? Is it possible to import those into your script? If you can, I think I'll switch to using your script full-time!



I have a few little ideas about the features your script has already..

1) Add the extra password room info also displayed when NOT logged into a CB account too.

2) Maybe x2 faster .jpeg thumbnail preview images on mouse rollover. It just feels a little low FPS now.



I also have some DREAM FEATURE ideas, but I don't know if they are possible at all..

1) Enhanced Password Room features! Auto-reload password room on password dropping/disabled. (When waiting on a profile profile page that is currently password only, auto-reload the password profile page when broadcaster removes the password.)

2) A clickable button/link to ender Theater Mode / Split view offline chatroom from offline profile page. This would be more complicated than just using the fullvideo URL and I'm not sure if this is possible. But I like theater mode / split view more than fullvideo mode, and it would be great to enter an offline chatroom like that.



Thank you for your great work!

Thank you for your feedback.
to answer your questions:

1) Models don't always appreciate it when you jump into their room when they come online and you don't answer them (you're not there else you could have use the alarm function). maybe i consider it if i have nothing else to do ...

2)Recording is not so hard to make but the quality of those recordings are terrible. (it's a sort of screen capture) and very long recordings may drain your memory.
It's better to use and external recorder (search google for "vovsoft m3u8 downloader").
The script provides many options to copy the video url to the clipboard.

1)password room when not logged in is not possible , cb sends you to the login page.

2)future updates may have a real video player

1)possible , i will think about it

2)The only way to enter an offline room is the full video mode.

Thanks for your fast response!


1) When camping in an offline room or offline profile page, models can see you in the users list already, right? So auto-reload would only trigger a leaving and joining notice if you're a mod or an FC member. And if you're NOT signed into a CB account, there would be nothing to disturb the model from refreshing, if that's your concern. Maybe you could create another toggle switch in the Account Menu to turn this on or off and let the user decide? Or perhaps disabling this feature for users who are signed into a CB account but enabling it for those who arent?

2) I agree, the default quality is terrible. I modified "function startRecordingStream" in Chaturbate Enhancer by increasing bitrate to 4.5 or 5.5 Mbps, changing codecs to vp8 or vp9, and changing maximum recording length from 10 min to 60 min. These 3 modifications greatly improve recording quality, but as you say, also uses a lot of memory: a 60-minute recording may be as large as 2.5 GB in RAM, and Chaturbate Enhancer does NOT clear that RAM after the file is saved (I don't know why). My computer has enough RAM so this is not a problem for me, but I understand this might be a problem for others.

I've never used "vovsoft m3u8 downloader" before, but I have used other external m3u8 recording browser extensions and none of them work very well for me. I also don't use Windows, so I can't use many of the external downloaders that others use. I don't know enough about how m3u8 streams work either, so this might be a stupid question but... Wouldn't using an external recorder like Vovsoft's create a second stream that would download to your computer simultaneously? So it would use x2 bandwidth and also appear to CB you have 2 simultaneous streams of the same room downloading (one in browser and one in a spoofed browser or a media player or something)? Wouldn't this be a problem if trying to save Group Shows, Ticket Shows, and private shows? I assumed that capturing the stream from within the browser did NOT generate a second m3u8 stream, but I could be completely wrong about that. I'd appreciate any knowledge you can share about this!

...

1) How about reading the broadcaster name from the URL (https://chaturbate.com/auth/login/?next=%2Froomlogin%2F{BROADCASTER_NAME_HERE}%2F) and querying CB for password room info that way?

2) Great, thanks!

...

1) Great, thanks x2! :-D

2) I understand. I hope CB changes something that will allow this some day!

1) When you're on a profile only page you're not in the userlist as you would be when you where on an offline page. So entering the room will always show in chat if you're colored (broadcaster can see it all), also bot's may react. And when you're not logged in you can not use the profile only page (it's using a rebuild of your own profile) but i will take a look at it because it's not really hard to do.

2)i have no plans to make a record button , but you can take a look at this script https://sleazyfork.org/nl/scripts/508891-stream-recorder-for-adult-cam-sites-that-do-not-support-hls/code . i think it may work if you add // @match https://www.chaturbate.com/*
Using a downloader will create extra bandwidth but it's no problem for the streams

1) too complicated and it will give almost no extra info
