Video counter
Quote from rocote on March 24, 2020, 4:04 pmHello Luis ...
As you know, I am building a video application for the videos I make.
I would like to know if there is a way to count the number of times each video is watched.
I would like the calculated number to be kept on the "host" server so that counting continues each time a new user plays the video again.
Note: I have many videos in this application.
Thank you!

You should have a different counter for each video or save all the data in the same file in JSON format or your own format (comma separated for instance). It's possible to use a database too. Take a look at this video tutorial to learn how to read and write files to your server:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbxM2KfT0YA
