acetone: you can tell mr anon that he can toggle smaller videos via the player now. still issues with the preferences/cookies and whatever else is blocking the save.
mesh
dr|z3d: what video player is this?
dr|z3d
tube.i2p
mesh
is i2p really fast enough to stream video
dr|z3d
plenty fast enough, if your connection is.
dr|z3d
especially when you're hitting a 0-hop server.
mesh
this is amazing, I had no idea. the docs say i2p is designed for message based, chunkier protocols
mesh
0 hop server? you mean it's a direct connection?
dr|z3d
you determine how many hops you want to take to reach the server.
mesh
well I have everything configured to take at least 3 hops
dr|z3d
the server itself is 0 hop, so instead of the usual 3 + 3, you've got 3 + 0.
mesh
when you say the server is 0 hop, you mean the server has configured its connection so that the length of its tunnels are 0?
dr|z3d
[y]
dr|z3d
you - - - > server.
dr|z3d
server - - - > you.
mesh
I'm still surprised this works
dr|z3d
0 hop on client and server both, with a few streams, 65Mb/s has been witnessed via the outproxy, albeit briefly.
dr|z3d
if you're using i2p+, you're already pre-selecting faster, lower-latency routers for your tunnels, so that doesn't hurt.
mesh
dr|z3d: has there been any testing with downloading files with 2 or 3 hops?
dr|z3d
no doubt. there's a rudimentary outproxy b/w tester on outproxy.purokishi.i2p
dr|z3d
but give the huge variation in routers, network conditions, etc, testing will return different results every time you try, +-
mesh
dr|z3d: is it feasible to download large binaries over i2p? ~500mb-1gb?
dr|z3d
sure. it's called bittorrent.
dr|z3d
all you need is a hash and two clients and you should be good to go, assuming they both use opentrackers and/or dht.
dr|z3d
elsewise, eepget -n 9999 url.of/file will do the job, though bitorrent is obviously more resilient.
mesh
not sure bittorrent would help
dr|z3d
bittorrent does help plenty. automatic resumption of failed transfers etc.
mesh
I guess I'll have to test it out. I was thinking that i2p couldn't handle downloading large files and people should go out-of-band for actual downloads
mesh
dr|z3d: there wouldn't be a lot of seeders for these files
mesh
most times the torrent would just be 1 downloader and 1 server
dr|z3d
doesn't matter. like I said, 2 clients is plenty.
dr|z3d
1 to serve, 1 to download.
dr|z3d
bitorrent is the most reobust way to send/receive big files.
mesh
dr|z3d: at that point isn't bittorrent just overhead? wouldn't a simpler ftp protocol be faster?
dr|z3d
no
mesh
my understanding is the torrent protocol isn't worth it in the 1-1 case. I guess the resumability is nice though
dr|z3d
i2p is different.
dr|z3d
you want robust, you don't want to have to monitor a download, you have time to wait. arrival is more important than speed. so bittorrent. it's that simple. and you already have the tools built into i2p/i2p+.
mesh
it would need to be automated though. I wonder how hard it would be to remove the i2p-torrent code and use it independently
dr|z3d
just do it. you can script downloads. just drop a .torrent file in your i2psnark dir and let the magic happen.
dr|z3d
in fact, you can script everything given the motivation and skills.
mesh
scripting isn't really a sustainable solution
dr|z3d
i don't know what problem you're trying to solve, and frankly, I'm not that interested.
dr|z3d
show me code, show me something useful, then I'm interested. otherwise it's all hot air to me.
mesh
dr|z3d: I'm just learning, trying to understand what is possible and what is not
dr|z3d
well, you got skills, put them to use, help the network grow at the same time, and learn while you're at it. best advice :)
dr|z3d
i2pchat is a good place to learn about how the network functions, and it could do with some more eyes on the code. good place to start.
dr|z3d
oh, and you can transfer files over i2pchat, so maybe that's something you can look at improving if it interests you.
mesh
dr|z3d: how does that work? Is it just a direct socket connection?
dr|z3d
best way to learn is to grab the source and see what it's doing.
mesh
is it possible to configure firefox to delete its history and cache on exit?
mesh
oh this functionality is built in, neat
acetone
dr|z3d: thanks for tube i2p
acetone
i check it now and my preferences not save, after pushing the Save button page refreshing and all values by default (EN, 720HD)
acetone
but yep, sound only mode and quality selector on video page is works! super
acetone
video quality list on video page is exists but Download button is redirect to main page of tube.i2p, this in working process, ok)
dr|z3d
thanks for the feedback acetone, and yeah, still plenty of work to do there to get it all running smooth.
mesh
is google down?
T3s|4_
mesh: at *any* point in time, what is your assessment of the odds of the Big G being 'down'? ;p
mesh
T3s|4_: might be my local net but google has been spotty all day
T3s|4_
mesh: noted, but all is well (as almost always) here
T3s|4_
my sheer guess is that during your inability to access/use Google, your ISP is likely the cause 99+% out of 100 times
