Vimeo Playback: Retrieve full stream

Open kila58 opened this issue 1 week ago • 0 comments

The crawler is working great, but struggles with Vimeo embeds that stream the video in chunks while playing. It will capture the first few seconds of a Vimeo embed as if it just pressed play, but the rest of the video fails to load as it hasn't buffered fully.

Example: https://wewillteachyouleague.com/

I know this is a pretty specific use case, so alternatively could I use behaviors to interact with the embed and load it fully? I've tried previously using a browser extension but I was struggling with puppeteer's support for that.
