fast-streaming

Very simple Python script for personal usage :

• Select video via sftp (or provide directly an URL/Torrent/Magnet/...)
• Downloads it with aria2c with multiple connections at the same time to bypass some possible speed limit,
• Starts to download blocks from the begining to start streaming right away,
• Download subtitles
• Opens it with VLC.

Dependencies

paramiko, configparser, Picker, send2trash pip install -r requirements.txt

Also to use the module Pick you will need ncurses (http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#curses) pip install curses-*.whl

Configuration

Rename the "config.ini.example" to "config.ini" and replace with your own data.
