Hi @Brendan-Kirtlan ,

Youtube algorithm brought up your video in my watch list. It sounded very similar to a project I did 10 years ago as part of my master thesis. At that time we used photosharing websites as cloud storage. I thought maybe interesting for you: Exploiting Facebook, Flickr, and Picasa : Utilizing Photo Sharing Websites as Cloud Storage Backends

It was implemented as backend in the jclouds framework. The source can be found here: https://github.com/sebastiangraf/jclouds

Very interesting, thanks for reach out. Using the photo album is definitely a neat idea, rather than using video conversion, especially to avoid dealing with video compression. I’ll have to check out that code.

To add to this conversation YouBit is a Python implementation of the exact same idea. If you wish to improve your algorithm, you might be able to gather some ideas from it. It employs error correction and can actually save 2 bits of information per pixel of the output video, without any corruption.
