I am loving making mashup videos with it. Trump talking about walls: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F38EwKOmDdU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F38EwKOmDdU

  How did you construct the mashup - is there a way to feed the search results to a video editor or seamless playlist generator?

    Not yet but this is a pet project that I would love to get going (time strapped now, though). I used the Lexika API to get the times from query results (i.e. when the words were said), then used some hacked together python along with ffmpeg with a lot of auto-generated seeking command line arguments to splice together the video feed. Then the title screens were done in a normal editor. I would love to make this an app though. Just search for phrases, choose clips, and output a cute video. You could just have a thousand people saying a "thousand", or something equally weird.

      A decade ago, SMIL players could perform seamless editing/composition of media streams on the fly, using only a playlist of streams and start/stop times. It's unfortunate that those standards have fallen by the wayside, at least until someone builds an HTML5 equivalent.
