metacafe and tube8 caching

by Anonymous on 15 Dec 2008

Hi Kulbir Saini,

I've install videocache-1.6-1 on my fedora, but seemed metacafe did not working properly. I try to log request from metacafe and seemed they has move the content from v.mccont.com to akmccvideos.metacafe.com (or maybe they have 2 host to store the content?). Take alook at this sample below

http://v.mccont.com/ItemFiles/%5BFrom%20www.metacafe.com%5D%202150475.9089116.11.flv?"gda"=1229171250_68d2e8dc3f1a18d83708e6e9457e682b
http://akmccvideos.metacafe.com/ItemFiles/%5BFrom%20www.metacafe.com%5D%201934359.8612678.9.wmv
http://akmccvideos.metacafe.com/ItemFiles/%5BFrom%20www.metacafe.com%5D%202051787.8858559.1.wmv

I also would like to request feature to cache www.tube8.com. I attach you the log that hopefuly will help you to create the pattern.

acl videocache_allow_url url_regex -i [a-z][0-9]\.tube8\.com/(.*)\.(flv|3gp)

Thank you

Thanks Sizulku for digging that useful information for me :) It'll help me big time in fixing the plugin. Tube8 is being served without any ? or parameters as suffix, so Squid itself will take care of its caching. Videocache need not interfere to get it cached.

I'll have a look at metacafe problem soon.

Thanks for considering Videocache :)

Hi Kulbir,

Yes, there are ? at tube8.com url, see this url below;

http://media12.tube8.com/flv/158f57e751f4b70ab29150eb65de1e3c/493794b0/0807/02/486b442364246/486b442364246.flv?start=600646

the others such as images at tube8.com will take care by squid as usual. Thanks for adding tube8.com into Videocache.

Rgds,
sizulku

No problem then. I'll see to it and will make videocache work for Tube8 :) Thanks for the link.

I have installed the latest version. Why it did cache youporn, and other sites?
It only cache youtube & tube8. The rest weren't cached.
And why the squid pass all request to videocache?
Did i do something wrong?

Thanks
