I just divorced my wife of 20 years named Javascript. I hope this Python chick is worth the hassle.

[@Alex-kb2ws]

no

[@immineal]

Quick note for the viewer: Any video uploaded just like this will be set on private. To get your videos to show up oublicly you have to do an API Audit, describing to Google what is to be done with the app. You will even then also not be able to upload unlimited obviously botted content, that's what the "API Quota" is for. There are obviously ways to break even systems like this, but trying to trick this system just to upload reddit yt shorts is unproportionally much work. At that point you might as well just use Selenium and Chrome Driver to manually upload stuff. But even at that point KZbin is not going to show those videos to anyone since the algorithm has filters for spam uploading (obviously)

[@HikikomoriDev]

In other words, this is all futile and a scam. Yup. Got it! :)

[@KadeStringer2.0]

Not true

[@immineal]

@@KadeStringer2.0 well yes it is, or do you want to prove me wrong? Cause sure go for it, but just writing 'not true' isn't really a antithesis to my statement

[@junaidmughal3806]

Yes, automating sites like youtube, facebook, twitter is a death trap. It does more harm than good. These websites have very strong bot detection mechanisms.

[@screwsenno1927]

honestly your content blows me away. I am a fairly mediocre Computer Science student. I mostly work in the languages we are being taught in (C#, c++, microsoft stuff) for now, but the sheer commitment and ingenuity, not to mention the imagination to come up with some of the projects I've seen on your channel. It's really cool to see. I also like how the videos aren't just the usual "learn how to code an entire app in X" and then it's just something that looks like a student project like a simple "UI for class enrollment" or whatever that you see at universities early on. I'll be looking forward to more content from you onwards!

[@buddhadebsarkar1708]

Learn python... In near future, there will be a layer coding system. where you are coding a bot with python, and that bot constructs C++ or java code for you. Something like this.

[@morthim]

i like the base idea. i'm not sure about copyright for youtube, but this could be a way to scrape snark. and start to develop different attitudinal poles.

[@animated.stories.reddit]

This was 4 months ago but I still love it

[@jazzmoon77]

Thanks. What if you wanted to do the second half, and just automate the upload process using a video and description etc that’s stored in an airtable database, and have it run when a status field updates to a value of say schedule?

Got it running but it sometimes gives the following error: "OSError: cannot write mode P as JPEG"

Hi sir, is there some options for make animations with python for some file glb and then save to mp4? Regards

[@emilsjonans4518]

You don't need to edit files you just need to set User or System Enviroment variables so that IMAGE_BINARY points to ImageMagic at 7:54 because if you update the libs your changes will get overwritten. The call to os.getenv('variable name', 'default value') returns the value of the variable set in the environment or default value. On UNIX systems you would add `export VARIABLE_NAME=value` to .bashrc and on windows you can search for "edit environment variables for your account" in your start search thing

[@danieldenes6931]

Love your videos! This one was great to follow, I got to the point where the bot makes the basic 1 minute video with the comments, and uploads it, but the videos get flagged instantly and made private. Also I've got an e-mail that I should check out the spam and deceptive prectices guidlines. There they state that mass scraped content made into videos by bots, without anyone overviewing the quility of said videos is not allowed. So if my understanding is right if the videos are not seem to made by bots its okay. Do you have any idea to get around this restriction? Did anyone have the same issue?

[@ClarityCoders]

I never got that when only I was running the script so I'm guessing that maybe to many people posting a very similar video. I would assume that if the video is a bit different it wouldn't flag it. For example using a very different sub like art or something.
