A Netflix Party equivalent using videos hosted on Google Drive: https://gdrive-party.web.app/

gdrive-party's Issues

Auto format google drive urls

Add support to convert google drive urls into the required format so that they can be streamed.

Also using React Video player ref functions to check if url can be streamed before creating room

Issues with large files on Google Drive

Google has a mechanism preventing large files from being downloaded/streamed immediately. Need to add support for those types of videos

Security: Mallory can delete all the rooms

Anyone can fetch all the room IDs and delete all of the rooms

Deployment

Hi Rafae

Are you planning to create instruction on how to fully deploy this?

security: rate limit the users

Curently, a csrf poc can be generated and automated to clutter your db with random data which can lead to various problems.

Implement some sort of rate limiting based on IP which will make it difficult (yeah, only difficult) to do this.

bug: delete room button doesnt do anything

tried on mac m1 safari
to reproduce:

1. create a room
2. click delete room
3. nothing happens

Design Ideas

I wanted to make this a more personalizable experience, hence I was thinking about setting The party title, providing a background image, font styles etc.

Also currently it only works on the url specified, but what if the Host could specify a queue of videos (even across different platforms).

feature request: support unprocessed videos

google drive is taking ages (literally been a week since i uploaded the 22gb mkv file) to process videos, and if it's not processed it cant be played, would it be possible to allow that somehow?

How to format Google Drive link?

I can't seem to figure out how to format the Google Drive sharable link.
I've tried these formats:

• https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=[ID]
• https://drive.google.com/file/d/[ID]/view?usp=sharing\

I'm using the demo website on Heroku.
