NIP-61: Danmaku

Open CodyTseng opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Danmaku (弾幕 だんまく; 弹幕; literally translated as "bullet curtain" and figuratively as "barrage") is a subtitle system in online video platforms that originates from Japan and popularised in Mainland China. Such system allows user to post moving comments onto a playing video that are synchronized to the video timeline. The comments are typically presented as “shooting” across the screen, resembling a barrage.

This NIP is being implemented and experimented with in danmakustr, source code: https://github.com/CodyTseng/danmakustr

Easy to read

I've been waiting for someone to build this, I think it's a great idea. I haven't looked closely at it, but you should consider modeling this as an extension (using a new kind) of NIP 84.

I feel like this should go on that videos NIP.

Could you please provide a brief explanation of how to extend NIP-84? Is it accomplished by adding a comment tag? I'm not very familiar with NIP-84, but it seems like it might not be suitable for comments.

Are you referring to the Live Streaming chat message in NIP-53? I do see many similarities between the two. However, I'm unsure if incorporating this feature into NIP-53 would be appropriate.

Reviewing it, I think the two are conceptually similar, but it would be hard to modify NIP 84 to work for this use case. I actually like this NIP better on closer inspection.
