@embed — news

📱 Reddit module is working again!

📱 TikTok module was disabled. — I don't have the latest API and am not interested in spending time researching it for now. if you have ready info, you can always hmu @matteo and I'll look into it.

📱 Instagram module was disabled. — I'm hitting the login page even on my own residential IP. hmu @matteo if you can either: provide a working proxy, or some kind of bypass / other method.

📱 YouTube module was disabled. — Muxed (video-audio merged) streams were deprecated by YT, and it takes too much CPU/RAM to perform the muxing ourselves with ffmpeg, even though we tried. Could come back in the future.

📱 Spotify module was disabled. — Hard to keep up with security changes. Could come back in the future.

🧹 Considering a full rewrite — what feature would you like to see added or improved?

📱 Spotify download is now available on @BetterEmbedsBot 🎵 Share true native Spotify to MP3 @ 320kbit/s, right with your friends on Telegram. 🆒 Only bot to do it currently. No YouTube or Deezer backlinking.

📱 @BetterEmbedsBot now allows you to make clips (cuts) of YouTube videos, using our custom extension of the ?t=X URL parameter. 🎵 You can also download those as a full quality MP3 afterwards, with the click of a button. ℹ Below is our documentation for clipping:

?t=X → Won't clip, as this is the default YouTube format for sharing timecodes. Unless 0: ?t=0 → The full video will be downloaded (up until a certain duration) ?t=0+1 → Will clip from 0.00s to 1.00s, effectively 1 second ?t=0-1 → Will clip from 0.00s to 2.00s, effectively 2 seconds (that's because when doing so the end user is likely to believe it to be inclusive) ?t=X+ → Will clip until the end of the video (unless deemed too long by the bot) ?t=X- → ^ Same
