Show HN: Eliminate video buffering with a Chrome extension
This extension will replace videos on websites with a custom one that use download acceleration to prebuffer as you watch.
It works on most websites, including Youtube. Fortuitously, it is also able to bypass Youtube's anti-adblock shenanigans.
I started this project in high school to fix the terrible video players used on most websites. Since then, I've received a lot of feedback from my users and FastStream has improved significantly. Now that most bugs have been ironed out, I think I am ready to share it here on HN.
It is still undergoing rapid development (multiple releases every week), so let me know if you see any bugs or have feature suggestions. I usually address such requests on Github within 2-3 days.

Could anybody explain it to me?

There is a javascript library for interfacing with Youtube's API directly. It can also run on browsers. Using this, it's pretty easy to create a simple extension that replaces the default video player with your own. You can do a lot to improve your experience this way. I've made one which allows for higher quality streaming, pre-buffering video in the background, more subtitling options, etc... [2].

Web Scraping with Python: Everything you need to know
Love this approach. We can just bypass all the normal web scraping and get the structured data straight from the source. These APIs are usually no less stable than the ever changing HTML structure anyways.
