PeerTube 5.2 now allows to transcode a video on another server

I am still looking for a small "client/server" written in plain and simple C, which I could pipeout the video I would like to watch from.

Not to mention, the search interface does not have a noscript/basic (x)html portal. Unless there is an API which could be used with curl?

If peertube requires a big tech web engine to run... come on...

So where are those implementations?
