opps title meant to say modules
I was thinking it would be cool to make modules for the playback of media from various sites. So for example you could feed a youtube module a videoid and it would return the final playback link. I plan to make several modules myself for some us stream sites[rtmp ]. It would make it easy for people trying to make a new plug-in for a site that uses one of these sites for hosting. They could just import the module and feed it the needed data for it to return the playback url. I am not sure the big ones anymore but mega video and other similar sites.
I was also thinking like the ICanHazCheezeBurger plug-in could be expanded to support the youtube videos they post easily with such modules. I just think it would benefit everyone both developers and users.
I am mainly doing the modules I am because in the hulu search has the option to return results from other websites. Many which already have plug-ins but I thought it would be really cool to be able to play them from with in hulu's search. Anyway that is what sparked the idea. I thought I would put it out there and perhaps others would find it appealing as well.
