nascore_tv Usage Instructions

Introduction

nascore_tv is an extension of NasCore that provides video on demand (VOD) or TV functions. It optimizes the video playback experience by proxying the Douban API and the API for subscribing to video resource libraries, and caching a small amount of hot data.

Installation

Download the nascore_tv binary file:

Download the binary file according to your operating system and unzip it ( TODO: Add actual download links or compilation instructions )

Storage location: Place the unzipped nascore_tv or nascore_tv.exe file in one of the following directories:

In the same directory as the executable file of the NasCore main program (such as nascore).
In the extended subdirectory in the same directory as the executable file of the NasCore main program. This method is recommended.
The directory specified by the environment variable NASCOTE_EXTENDED_PATH.

It is recommended to put nascore_tv in the extended subdirectory to better organize the file structure.

Configuration

nascore_tv is configured via the nascore_vod.toml file. This file needs to be placed in the same directory as the nascore_tv executable file. If this configuration file is not present, the default values will be used.
