<h1>Instructions</h1>
<p>To get this demo to work you should get the
<a href="/client/#/bando/components/WTVideo/">WTVideo</a> demo working.
This demo will have you create a sample image and sample video that
the <code>HLSVideo</code> uses as well. If you don't have access to
the <code>mktorrent</code> command mentioned in the
<a href="/client/#/bando/components/WTVideo/">WTVideo</a> demo then
just skip that part and as long as you have the samples in place
the <code>HLSVideo</code> demo will work. </p>

# Getting Media
This demo is found in `admin/bando/demos/WTVideos.svelte` and it is coded to expect a sample image, video and torrent file at:
* `/images/sample_video.mp4`
* `/images/sample_image.jpg`
* `/images/sample_video.mp4.torrent`
If you want it to work locally, grab a video and an image and place them there, then use `mktorrent` as described next.
# Making the .torrent
This will most likely *only* work if you have your server on `127.0.0.1` since the torrent file is configured for that. Also, the default `npm run dev` will run the simple tracker implementation found in `services/tracker.js`. If you want to generate the torrents again then run: This will most likely *only* work if you have your server on `127.0.0.1` since the torrent file is configured for that.

It uses the [mktorrents](https://github.com/pobrn/mktorrent) to generate the torrent since it is faster.

1. It looks like WebTorrent has a problem getting the last chunk in some situations and I'm quite sure why. If you have an idea let me know.

If you want to let people download the video then add the `download={ true }` property. This demo sets that option so you can see how it works. If you want to let people download the video then add the `download={ true }` property.
