> These videos come from YouTube. They were uploaded in the last week and have titles like DSC 1234 and IMG 4321. They have almost zero previous views. They are unnamed, unedited, and unseen (by anyone but you).
At one point you might be at a school recital in Malaysia, and the next minute you are at a birthday in Ecuador. It's amazing!
I might be wrong in your specific case, but generally YouTube doesn't just remove videos with copyrighted audio. Often copyright holders instead make it so that the video with their songs will have ads and they'll receive all the ad revenue.
https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7002106?hl=en
"Depending on the copyright owner's Content ID settings, Content ID claims can:
- Block content from being viewed.
- Monetize content by running ads on it and sometimes sharing revenue with the uploader.
- Track the viewership statistics on the content.
Any of these actions can be geography-specific. For example, a video can be monetized in one country/region and blocked or tracked in a different country/region."
A couple hours after posting this on my site, I found this incredible vid of a woman telling her partner she’s pregnant. Incredibly heartfelt, and only 16 views https://youtu.be/refKFdcojlE?si=l-PssLVYmmOPjjjA
It was posted over 10 years ago. I wonder if the family even knows that this video still exists.

By coincidence this is one of my favourite songs by one of my favourite bands.
Edit: I found the set list for that show:

TFA, "Apple uses the ‘IMG_XXXX’ naming convention for all images and videos captured on iOS devices, where XXXX is a unique sequence number." isn't very accurate, as the numbers are not unique. They're just sequential. if you take 1001 images, the file system will actually create a new folder and roll the digits back to 0000 to avoid overwriting
Whether this was legal is... a gray area, it was a somewhat legitimate company that won some kind of Canadian startup contest on TV, but the music industry was, very predictably, furious at their business model.
Eventually, Apple got scared enough of being sued along with them that they caved in and removed the app, but that took far longer than I thought it would.
There's a good article at https://torrentfreak.com/apple-removes-parasitic-streaming-a...
For what it's worth, Apple are just conforming to the JEITA/CIPA DCF standard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_rule_for_Camera_File_sy...
“DCF file names” specification sez… http://www.kronometric.org/phot/std/DC-009-2010_E.pdf#page=2...
“File names conforming to the following rules are called DCF file names.
• The file name is 8 characters (not including the file extension).
• The first four characters consist only of the upper-case alphanumeric characters shown in Table 1
• These are referred to as the DCF file name Free characters. They shall not contain two-byte characters or special codes.
• The four characters that follow are a number between "0001" and "9999". "0000" shall not be used. These four digits are referred to as File number.
• Files with the same file number stored in the same DCF directory are considered to be object component files as defined in 4.3.2.”
I also wrote about my experiences and why I consider this time the golden age in a blog post here: <https://susam.net/web-golden.html>.

Pretty great.
The original eternal September[1] predates my entry to the internet by a couple of years, but the cycle repeats eternally.
I remember looking through the code awhile ago, it's nice and simple!
Uses socket.io w node.js + express, a crawler script searches YT periodically to keep the videos fresh. The server iterates randomly through the video list, telling all clients through socket.io which video is next, and when to switch.

Not sure what triggered it, but I began odd searches a while ago and want to echo many of the "feels like the good old days" type comments.
Video made without any real production intent is compelling. It is pure, raw, just human and many of us hunger for that because the big media players dominate hard for fear of losing to their peers it seems.
And that behavior is expensive to us.
Hoping that helps. Otherwise, you might try something like https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp.

It was discovered recently with Flux that using just IMG_1234.jpg as a prompt gives you a very casual photo like images.

It's a Geocities archive containing websites hosted on the platform from the 90s/00s. I really like the creativity and authenticity in the archived sites, it's like looking at a mirror into the past.
What annoys me is that when a video is split into multiple files (because of sd card limitations etc), it increases the first number, giving you files that sort really weird. So I film GX010001.mp4, then after 8 minutes it starts a new file GX020001.mp4, GX030001.mp4 etc., and then later that day when I make a new clip, it has GX010002.mp4. This breaks sorting by filename. Can sort by creationdate, but for the chaptered videos they often share the same original datetime as well, making it quite confusing when dealing with loads of gopro videos. (I just published some tooling I've written for creating street view content from gopros, so felt all the quirks lately https://github.com/Matsemann/matsemanns-streetview-tools/ the gopro max starts with GS btw)
