Thomas 4f8af35035 Support live streams 
Now the type of a video is defined when trying to play a video so that
live streams (.m3u8) are directly played by Kodi (no download required).

We are able to know if a video is live from the response of the "list"
REST API but it was decided to ignore this information in order to have
a single action to play video (whether it is live or not).
The goal was to keep the API of the add-on as simple as possible so that
externel users only have to call the add-on's API with the ID of a
video, without having to add the type of the video.
The information about the type of the video will anyway be available in
the response used to get the URL of a video so this solution does not
impact the performance.

[[TOC]]

Features

  • Play videos (including live videos)
  • Browse the videos on a PeerTube instance
  • Search for videos on a PeerTube instance
  • Select the PeerTube instance to use
  • Select the preferred video resolution: the plugin will try to play the preferred video resolution.
    If it's not available, it will play the lower resolution that is the closest to your preference.
    If not available, it will play the higher resolution that is the closest from your preference.

User settings

  • Preferred PeerTube instance
  • Preferred video resolution
  • Number of items to display per page
  • Value used to sort items when listing/searching videos:
    • views: sort by number of views (ascending only)
    • likes: sort by number of likes (ascending only)
  • Select the filter to use when browsing the videos on an instance:
    • local will only display the videos which are local to the selected instance
    • all-local will only display the videos which are local to the selected instance plus the private and unlisted videos (requires admin privileges)

API

This add-on can be called from other add-ons in Kodi to play videos thanks to the following API:

plugin://plugin.video.peertube/?action=play_video&instance=<instance>&id=<id>

where:

  • <instance> is the base URL of the instance hosting the video
  • <id> is the ID or the UUID of the video on the instance server

For instance to play the video behind the URL https://framatube.org/videos/watch/9c9de5e8-0a1e-484a-b099-e80766180a6d call the add-on with:

plugin://plugin.video.peertube/?action=play_video&instance=framatube.org&id=9c9de5e8-0a1e-484a-b099-e80766180a6d

Limitations

  • This add-on doesn't support Webtorrent yet. So, it cannot download/share from/to regular PeerTube clients.
  • The add-on doesn't delete the downloaded files at the moment so it may fill up your disk. You may delete manually the downloaded files in the folder <kodi_home>/temp/plugin.video.peertube/ (more information on <kodi_home> here).

Installation and prerequisites
