Just by messing around a little it seems that the video stream is not ascii. i tested by downloading the stream. It would be insane if it was. Theres so many videos. So that couldnt be it. Youtube seems to not work with javascript disable (not counting mobile if true).
How is it being done? is it javascript magic? is the SWF running the video through a filter in realtime? (I doubt its a native filter so how is the filter compiled) its really cool. I cant imagine how this is running realtime yet it is!

MPlayer uses AALib for this type of effect. YouTube have probably ported it to ActionScript.

Note
I barely have any knowledge on web development but got some idea.
What I'm doing
I'm trying to make a Rust program to scrape any link to a media in a website, like how JDownloader 2 does. Not required to find all media, just any media this is simple enough to get.
Problems
Resolving links to media (Blob, Data)
Site that result differently on browser to a single get request (I have some idea that this might need a web driver but I want to have least dependency as much as possible)
Question
How did JDownloader find these media so I can implement it in my crate? (Just enough information to get start)

Google is recommending PWA feature for fast and reliable website, but google itself is not using PWA features for their product as you can see google.com or youtube.com. Why?
I do not think storing video streams on a user's device might be a good idea, especially considering the size of the videos.
For both Google.com and youtube I do not see a PWA would be the right choice.
I wrote an article - first of a series about PWAs - describing the characteristics and main purposes of Progressive Web Apps. Maybe it might give you some further insights about this technology.
UPDATE
It seems that youTube after all is getting into PWA after all, as stated here.

Im using Xcode and toying around trying to make my first program. In my program i want it to have a place to insert a URL, then go to the URL fetch the audio from the data on the web page and then add that audio to a playlist in the app.
Along with all of the other excellent iOS resources available on the web, Apple's own developer site has plenty of good documentation and guides. Have a look at this document for some information on playing back an audio/video stream from a URL

I have a 3.5mm to IR sensor to connect to my headphone jack. I want to know if there's a way to create a basic app for my TV that will control it's Volume, Power On/Off, input, and number pad. I've kept researching for about a week now on how to do this, but haven't found an answer. Can someone help me?
Yes is it possible, you only need an application what play wav files.
Or jsut a file browser.
But you can find a plenty of applications and tutorials and details all over the internet.

one thing that annoys me on youtube is that it always starts playing the video automatically after opening the video page.
is there a way how to prevent it? i don't see such option in profile settings.
There plenty of greasemonkey scripts available to do this exact thing (search for 'autoplay'). Also, this belongs on Super User.
You can install the flashblock firefox extention. That will prevent anything flash from starting automatically. This works perfectly on youtube, and as a bonus it will get rid of a huge amount of annoying ads with blinking text or whatnot.
