This adds all languages supported by the OSO backend and fixes #27291.

Due to the severely increased complexity of "n" descrambling code, a
quick fix is unfortunately not foreseeable. For now, let users know more
clearly what's going on and what's to expect or not.

Ref #27227

Pierre Ynard authored 2 years ago and David committed 2 years ago

The descrambling script section was updated from a simple and linear
chain of calls, to a complex execution tree with conditional branches.
Failure to recognize and parse this call structure (or lack thereof)
resulted in a silent no-op. Add a check to properly report an error.

Ref #27227

Pierre Ynard authored 2 years ago and David committed 2 years ago

It was possible, when encountering different code from what was expected
for some known transformations, to void the code parsing pointer instead
of advancing it, resulting in a subsequent crash of the script and total
playback failure. Add a fallback and check, to prevent and gracefully
deal with this, and still allow playback, even if throttled, in case of
descrambling failure.

The `-I cli` no longer starts the lua CLI, luacli does not work
either, only `-I luaintf --lua-intf cli` does actually start the Lua
CLI interface properly.

The file directly modifies the global table (_G) so it does not
seem necessary at all to expose anything explicitly.

Looking through the tar command line help is brittle, and as a matter of
facts fails miserably with non-English locales.

Just feed a sorted list of files for tar to archive instead. This should
work regardless of the tar tool version in use.

This is a synonym for .ts used by certain video camera systems.

Since last month, requests without a valid referrer get rejected with an
HTTP 403 error.

We might want to consider that the lua script API should track and pass
such referrers by itself.

The descrambling function is now called through an intermediate array
variable. This change has also added two extra ways to recover the
function name. Add support to parse and resolve any of them.

Fixes #26317

Pierre Ynard authored 3 years ago and Hugo Beauzée-Luyssen committed 3 years ago

A new variant of compound transformation has the Base64 alphabet
generation and the compounding itself as two separate data array
elements, contrary to what was observed so far. Add support for those.

Fixes #26285

Pierre Ynard authored 3 years ago and Hugo Beauzée-Luyssen committed 3 years ago

A new standalone compound transformation, taking its Base64 alphabet
as extra input argument, has revealed itself. We support parsing and
passing this one more argument from the script section.

Technically this last argument can be a function or rather the result
of its call, but with no argument, we know what's always returned, and
don't need to treat it as a function. This is less clean but simpler and
will do for now.

Pierre Ynard authored 3 years ago and Hugo Beauzée-Luyssen committed 3 years ago

Newly observed transformations reveal that the uncertain character
code variable used as constant offset, really isn't one and is simply
supposed to be the alphabet's length. Thus even more so, it is a no-op
on the alphabet's algebraic modulo group, and probably just an artifact
of how modulo of negative numbers is handled in javascript. Simplify it
away.

User agents are apparently now expected to do this; failure to do so
results in the video file data transfer getting throttled down to rates
such as 80 kB/s, 60 kB/s or 40 kB/s, below playback rate, and usually
resulting in a video that hangs upon loading or every few seconds, and
is impossible to play. This behavior seems to have first appeared in
June, but been fully rolled out only last week.

Just like with URL signatures, we interoperate with YouTube by
fulfilling what's apparently expected from us, using the same approach
as so far: we parse the descrambling rules from the javascript code, and
apply them.

Fixes #26174

This should help against transient errors, and parsing of the javascript
URL isn't the part that's most likely to break.

We'll be descrambling the "n" parameter in addition to the URL signature
using this same javascript web asset, so we want to be able to share and
reuse it.

Use a more specific name as this isn't the only parameter anymore that
we'll be descrambling by parsing and emulating javascript.

Javascript variables can contain other, special characters, also %a
depends on the locale.
