newLISP paid code request - video capture upload script

Post by joejoe »

Hi -

If there were a separate forum for requesting paid coding service, I would use it for this post.

I would like to receive bids on a newLISP script described here:

Essentially, the script would load a web page periodically in firefox, begin a video caputure of the web page (without any toolbars or borders, just the web page inner frame itself), scroll down the page while continuing the video capture, when hitting the bottom, return to top, and stop the video recording.

Then the script would add in an audio track that fades out at the end of the video, compress the new video w/ this audio down to 15-20MB (or smaller if quality is still there), name it Sitename-YYYY-MM-DD and upload it to a YouTube account with the follow config variables:

Local configs:
Sitename
URL of web page to scroll capture
Audio Folder Path
- (random song selection for video chosen at runtime)
- (I will have multiple songs to choose from in Audio Folder)
I may be forgetting some necessary configs you might add.

YouTube configs:
YoutTube credentials
Video Title
Video Description
Video Tags
Video License Select,
etc., options available on the YouTube video upload page.

This script would be run once a day on a Linode account I have( ssh available).

Below are a couple commands I now use to do this manually, if they might help.

Code: Select all

recordmydesktop --windowid 0x1cd9b18 --no-cursor --no-sound --no-frame --v_quality 30 -y 130 -x 5 --width 975 --height 650
* Please note, I have not gotten proper video dimensions yet, so you would adjust to make proper YT video.

(I use the Scrollyfox firefox extension manually)
(I use Pitivi editor to combine the video w/ audio and fade out the audio and video end.)

Code: Select all

mencoder tmpfile.avi -ovc lavc -oac mp3lame -o Sitename-YYYY-MM-DD.avi
* This command I just found on the web and it works well, but if you can do better, please do.

Thanks! And I look forward to meeting a nL coder for future work as well! :0)

Way beyond my experience, unfortunately, but good luck with finding someone.

(I think that there are some newLISPers who have experience in the video industry - Lutz, Kanen, to name but two. But they may be expensive ... :))

I forgot to mention the YouTube api documentation:

Cormullion, I can cover the video conversion settings if you can orchestrate the script. Thanks!
