Dailymotion videos no longer play

[xRyozuo]

Please confirm whether you've tried the following debugging steps:

• Clearing cache and refreshing the page (On Firefox, press Ctrl+F5. On Chrome, press F12, then right click the refresh button and click "Empty Cache and Hard Reload")
• Disabling all browser extensions
• Using a clean channel with no customizations
  (also tried on several different devices and browsers)

Description of the Problem

Videos from dailymotion dont seem to play anymore (tried adding new random videos, nada), this started happening sometime this week. The channel had been running and working for a few months with no issues. Now theres a blank black box in its stead but the header does display the correct title of the video.

Hi, thanks for reporting this. I'm no longer actively maintaining this software so we'll have to see if someone else is willing to redo the dailymotion implementation as it looks like they changed it.

Oh shame! So out of curiosity, what would I need to learn to do this myself? I depend on the channel to fall asleep so I’m motivated lol

The documentation for DailyMotion player APIs is here:
https://developers.dailymotion.com/sdk/player-sdk/web/#methods

The page referenced in the console errors of CyTube's webclient when you play a DailyMotion video current is here:
https://developers.dailymotion.com/guides/getting-started-with-web-sdk/#player-library-script

I do my best to keep CyTube running but to be quite honest, DailyMotion is something I use quite rarely, and I have other more pressing concerns with the site, so it would be a long time before I could do this. If you're interested in doing it yourself, you'd need to know basic JavaScript, and to look at how the YouTube integration is done. You'd need to embed the DM player library, and modify CyTube's player class for DM.

Thank you very much for the roadmap! Ive been tinkering with it, as i understand it i need to create a fork to edit the file. How can i test that what Im doing works/doesnt before uploading it?
