Wish to have feature to use proxy #196

Closed popwee416 closed 4 years ago

popwee416 commented 4 years ago

Hope we can add feature to support proxy in the command such as --proxy , so that we can use proxy to download in faster speed or when we are in restricted network.

Thanks

Hi I'm on vacation, I'll be back next week and I'll look into it

Edit: probably it can be added, it should be easy... I'll look into it

We have a dependency on ffmpeg, even if we (destreamer) honor proxy settings we would need to find a way to convince ffmpeg to use the proxy, worse if we add aria as a dependency as well (which we will)... you see where this is going.

Just spin up a VM somewhere you don't need a proxy to access the internet.

@snobu if I'm not mistaken aria has proxy settings and when we use aria ffmpeg will be all offline

Ah i see. Ok, i'm gonna start a new Project for destreamer v3 and link this issue there. Yes, i guess we could expose aria's configuration somehow (either though a .destreamer config file or CLI params) - https://aria2.github.io/manual/en/html/aria2c.html?highlight=all%20proxy#http-ftp-sftp-options
