Too Long; Didn't Watch!
- Go to https://tldw.tube or run locally (recommended)
- Enter video URL
- Go
Running locally is recommended because hosted version have strict rate limit, as it rely on residential proxy and OpenAI API which costs me money.
Set the variables in .env:
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-proj-xxxxxx...
PROXY_URL=https://user:pass@your-proxy-provider-here.com:8888
MAX_VIDEO_DURATION=7200
Variables:
PROXY_URLis optional but recommended for production deployments, recommend using a residential or LTE proxy.MAX_VIDEO_DURATIONis optional, defaults to 7200 (2 hours). Videos longer than this will be rejected.
