Hey List, I have been working a while ago on a tool(ICAP service) that will do the next: - Snatch YouTube main video pages(watch?...) on the fly - Fetch them - Parse them - Find the key to predict the ID of the X.googlevideo.com/Y which will match the YouTube video - Store the key with the correlated video ID in a redis DB for an hour - Then a StoreID helper will analyze X.googlevideo.com/Y urls and will try to see if it finds the matching a YouTube video by the ID on the redis DB The concept is kind of "divide and conquer" while later if I will have time there will be an option to combine these two things into one ICAP service that will help to cache YouTube videos and probably also Windows Updates using squid. Currently the ICAP service code will not be published but the binaries and the resources which I have used to create the tool will be published. (Something like the ingredients without the recipe due to this task being considered a caching master level and not just any novice) However my email is wide open for questions requests and tips for anyone that wishes to get answers, directions and guidance. @Alex, What will encourage you to help with an improved patch to add ICAP X-StoreID (or else) response header capability that will help me to write a complete StoreID solution based on ICAP alone? @Others, if you are interested in this solution publication please respond to this thread and CC to me. Thanks, Eliezer * I have released Squid-Cache 3.5.25 and 4.0.19 RPMS but Life takes more of my time and as I get busy I didn't have enough time to publish the article like in the past.
