I have the ssh movie player back online!

This is running on a custom ssh server built using russh as the backend. To convert frames, I used the python tv package, subtitling and playback is all custom.

You'll need a terminal that supports 24 bit color.

Try it! ssh ansi.rya.nc

This uses SSH to mostly to take advantage of compression (yes, it an be enabled by the server even if you set Compression=no), but it'll make some other features easier to implement.
@ryanc Feature request: at the other end of the status line (right-justified), an indicator of how many simultaneous streams are currently being served 😉
