Setup

Make sure the following prerequisites are installed:

pip install pyqt5 pyqt5-tools requests json

Also make sure you have sufficient video codecs. I recommend the K-Lite Codec Pack, but the choice is yours.

How to use

After setup, simply run python player.py.

Troubleshoot/Known issues

• I start the script, but nothing happens ..* Apparently, thats an issue with python3 on windows. Until fixed, use python 2.7 instead
• I get the following error code: DirectShowPlayerService::doRender: Unresolved error code 0x80040218 (IDispatch error #24), or similar ..* You are missing video codecs, see above
• Video is blurry/doesn't resize correctly/glitches ..* This could have various reasons, the most probable ones are either a bad internet connection or PyQt just feeling like it. Not much you can do about that, sadly...
