Time of upload with date

Open OshidaBCF opened this issue 2 years ago • 9 comments

PROBLEM: I wanna see the time (in hours and minutes) when a video was posted, i do not know if it is even possible

SOLUTION: I would like to see a new feature that change the regual "DD/MM/YYYY" date format into something with the hour next to it, like "HH:MM DD/MM/YYYY"

ALTERNATIVES: Maybe even add more option, like "MM/DD/YYYY" (for the psychopath that use this format)

RELEVANCE / SCOPE:

"SIDE EFFECTS": Hour + date by default should be good, as it is not annoying, at all, and if they wish to change that they can easily

Thank you!

In case of you don't have time to do that. MERRY CHRISTMAS

Yep

I vote for having multiple datetime formats

we, Europeans/ISOans prefer ´YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS´

Requires YouTube API keys.

I use another extension that can give the exact time of the upload, but not "where" i wish it image

here is the extension if you wish to dig deeper, i do not know if it's like, open source on a github https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/youtube-upload-time/nenoecmaibjcahoahnmeinahlapheblg

@chirag127 @OshidaBCF requests to a third party website includes:

  • Video ID

  • Your location
  • Your Internet provider
  • Your device type

I have a few ideas for a safe implementation of this feature, I'll check later.

what about inferring the upload hour:minute from the first comment? :D

I personally would be satisfied by just having ISO dates and having the hh:mm acuraccy for just uploaded stuff (I think it sometimes shows i.e. "39 minutes ago"

the thing is that i don't know how to code that...

You do

OshidaBCF avatar Jun 12 '22 16:06 OshidaBCF

a Chrome extension don't need to be open source to dig deeper their are many Chrome extension to download the source code of Chrome extension. I got that api by doing this only.

Well that was to point you to the extension, can't really send it to you as a file can i?

For what

@OshidaBCF you are analyzing how the upload might felt during that daytime? google's api documentation doesnt seem to include the word 'timestamp'

https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/?apix=true

https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/issues/1129

so the extension could be fake or it is accourate?

i have a few videos to keep track of, especially the upload date and time. The extension works and is accurate to the second. i do not know how it's working but i know it is.

Perhaps you could try it yourself to see if it works

OshidaBCF avatar Mar 21 '23 16:03 OshidaBCF

I just found a way to get the time

Using this github repo, i could find a link that return the "data" about a video, it only needed an API key to works

Now i can get those very useful informations image

So i guess it could be optained easily ? https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/videos?hl=en#:~:text=%22%3A%20%7B-,%22publishedAt%22,-%3A%20datetime%2C

here is a link to the Youtube API
