information possibly downloading the video to the file system, among
other possible outcomes.
- The dictionaries must include the following fields:
+ The type field determines the the type of the result.
+ By far the most common value (and the default if _type is missing) is
+ "video", which indicates a single video.
+
+ For a video, the dictionaries must include the following fields:
id: Video identifier.
title: Video title, unescaped.
by this field, regardless of all other values.
-1 for default (order by other properties),
-2 or smaller for less than default.
+ * language_preference Is this in the correct requested
+ language?
+ 10 if it's what the URL is about,
+ -1 for default (don't know),
+ -10 otherwise, other values reserved for now.
* quality Order number of the video quality of this
format, irrespective of the file format.
-1 for default (order by other properties),
Unless mentioned otherwise, None is equivalent to absence of information.
+
+ _type "playlist" indicates multiple videos.
+ There must be a key "entries", which is a list or a PagedList object, each
+ element of which is a valid dictionary under this specfication.
+
+ Additionally, playlists can have "title" and "id" attributes with the same
+ semantics as videos (see above).
+
+
+ _type "multi_video" indicates that there are multiple videos that
+ form a single show, for examples multiple acts of an opera or TV episode.
+ It must have an entries key like a playlist and contain all the keys
+ required for a video at the same time.
+
+
+ _type "url" indicates that the video must be extracted from another
+ location, possibly by a different extractor. Its only required key is:
+ "url" - the next URL to extract.
+
+ Additionally, it may have properties believed to be identical to the
+ resolved entity, for example "title" if the title of the referred video is
+ known ahead of time.
+
+
+ _type "url_transparent" entities have the same specification as "url", but
+ indicate that the given additional information is more precise than the one
+ associated with the resolved URL.
+ This is useful when a site employs a video service that hosts the video and
+ its technical metadata, but that video service does not embed a useful
+ title, description etc.
+
+
Subclasses of this one should re-define the _real_initialize() and
_real_extract() methods and define a _VALID_URL regexp.
Probably, they should also be added to the list of extractors.
