Videos get pulled because authors change their minds, breach copy/performance rights, say something objectionable, etc. There's a myriad of reasons. If I look at the analytical data YouTube provides me, I can't see any clues that someone has downloaded a video clip. I can see things like number of views, data on where they are, whether people watch the whole clip or only part of it, etc. You can step frame-by-frame through clip in your web browser. On a QWERTY keyboard the , . keys are forward and back frame-by-frame. The cursor left and right go in 5 second chunks. > Now I must learn how in VLC to do the forward and backward > single-framing, and the reduced-speed viewing. Good luck with that, I've found various video formats are a pain for frame-by-frame viewing, particularly in reverse. Often playback jams after a short bit of success (like just a few frames). -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.6.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Nov 17 13:59:11 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
