[FEATURE] Update to new API

Open anthonylavado opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. As of the end of February 2021, the F1TV website has been redesigned and has a new API that serves video. This new API has all newly added video content, and serves 50fps video when available. The old API currently used should be considered deprecated.

Describe the solution you'd like Update to the new API in order to continue accessing content with the best quality possible.

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

Additional context It is possible that this will be a larger effort, so I am creating similar issues for all F1TV related repositories. Hopefully there is a way we can all collaborate.

Will be taking a look at all the API stuff later today - hopefully I can get it (mostly) working before the 12th so that pre-season testing can be, well, tested.

I'll be tracking & posting progress here: https://github.com/bbsan2k/plugin.video.f1tv/projects/1 and https://github.com/bbsan2k/plugin.video.f1tv/issues/44
