Upload hundreds of videos easily?

[hellomotow]

I was wondering if there is a script to upload loads of videos easily? For example

./program -sourcevideohash Q321St4cU3........... -snap '/root/previews/video 1 test.jpg' -videotitle 'This is a test' -nsfw y/n -description -tag etc

No. I do not want to prioritize things like that especially currently through our centralized upload servers. If you do it through your own ipfs node then it should be okay.

Also the STEEM blockchain has a limitation of 5 minutes between each root post, so you won't ever be able to go faster than that.

@skzap I will be doing it through my own IPFS node which is why I added the "-sourcevideohash Q321St4cU3" part.

The images will go through your servers but if there is a way to do it with my own IPFS hash I'm all for it.

I recommend running https://github.com/dtube/ipfs-uploader, it will help you. Then you will probably need to create a script that hits on it to get the hashes of snap, encoded videos, and sprite (the picture used for video preview when you hover the time bar). Then format these hashes into a json like dtube creates in the app, and publish on steem (with whatever tool you like). It's a bit of work.

Feel free to reach out on discord for help ;)

Now with Avalon you're limited to account bandwidth, so unless you have a lot of DTCs to generate them in a short period of time this is not possible
