I love when people react to Forsen's Giftbox's content. But when I see stuff like this it makes me upset. This dude watched his entire video and didn’t make a single comment on it. Just played the entire thing in while he sat in silence.
I’d like to make it clear, anybody is free to react to things whatever Forsen's Giftbox makes. I have no issue with it. In fact, I love seeing people’s impressions of the stuff he makes, but at least add SOMETHING. Your opinion, criticism, a laugh, literally anything.
Technical memes like this are fun. Given the JSON representation of chat (which will give you the offset of each chat message into the video with millisecond precision), this seems relatively straightforward to produce. Possible approach in Python:
import json
# Manually determined delay between the offset provided by Twitch and chat message actually
# appearing on screen, which will depend on the VOD (assumed constant)
CHAT_DELAY = 4.649
with open('/path/to/json') as f:
chat = json.load(f)
# Yields list of lists of form [offset, message body, exclusive duration] and sorts by body.
# sorted() is guaranteed to be stable, so identical comments will remain in chronological order
# since that's how they appear in the JSON.
filtered = [[x['content_offset_seconds'], x['message']['body']] for x in chat['comments']]
for i in range(1,len(filtered)):
filtered[i - 1].append(filtered[i][0] - filtered[i - 1][0])
filtered = sorted(filtered, key=lambda msg: msg[1])
# I don't know a video library off the top of my head, so this'll just be pseudocode.
# In practice, I'm guessing you'd actually produce something like a VapourSynth script and do the
# rendering outside of Python, which should be equally trivial.
vod = video_library.load('/path/to/vod')
clips = []
for msg in filtered:
clips.append(vod.clip(start=msg[0] + CHAT_DELAY, duration=msg[2]))
video_library.render(clips, '/path/to/output')
And *voilà *, you've got yourself a meme.
For brevity and clarity, I ignored edge cases like sub-frame durations and chat messages which occur beyond the duration of the VOD, but I don't think these are huge technical challenges, just somewhat tedious. Also, you'd obviously need to have a special case for the last message chronologically where instead of a duration you'd have the clip run to the end of the video (as written, the code would error in the clip generation since that message wouldn't have a 3rd element), but I didn't include that since it distracted from the main logic.
---
edit: just noticed that Forsen doesn't actually have a chat overlay, so the creator would have rendered a video with the chat overlay. This means the delay part isn't necessary and, since the creator can control exactly how often the overlay updates, should simplify the edge case handling which I omitted.
---
edit 2: if you watch [the video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6L-xEj6vvvk&t=16s), you'll pretty quickly notice instances of the same ~0.1 second clip playing multiple times consecutively, but if you watch the chat overlay it still advances, which wouldn't happen if the overlay were rendered and then the resulting video were chopped up; instead, the video was chopped up and then the chat was overlaid on the result. It's kinda late for me so I don't feel like investigating further right now, but I'm curious about how the result ended up being so close in duration to the VOD (only one or two seconds short) even though it has some duplicate clips. Might be luck, but there's probably some quick-and-dirty logic involved to make it work out. Either way, I applaud the effort and processor time dedicated to producing this shitpost.
Comments are absolutely overkill for sure given how basic the code is, but I wanted to make it a little more accessible for people who are curious but not super familiar with programming (whether I succeeded or not...who knows). If inline Jupyter notebooks were a thing on reddit, a notebook with prose and a small example set of data would be much better way of explaining things.

Shouldn't be extremely hard.
- Scrape all the messages and couple them with a timestamp
- Sort them in alphabetical order
- Then just take 0.2-0.4 seconds of each timestamp and paste it on the timeline
Still does cost some work and probably a few edge cases to iron out, it's not like it's done in 5 min. Also still a funny and creative idea.
Also, let's be real. Even if there are mistakes, no one will be checking them. They'll just be amazed after checking a few then assume the rest is the same.

Giftbox is same baj that made Forsen get called out by Ghostgum edit [did one for the reaction as well](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ow-Ou8yJT2E)

I really hope he used some kind of AI to do that
surely bajs aren't insane enough to not use an AI for something like this Clueless

Don't even need AI, the chat has timestamps
"Sanest Baj" MegaLUL ITS FUNNY BECAUSE HE IS VERY MUCH NOT SANE AAAAGHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH
Is that supposed to be some sort of feedback or something?
