Playwright Audio Capture

This application uses Playwright to open a web page, click a play button, and capture audio from the page.

Setup

1. Install dependencies:

npm install
npm run install-browsers

Usage

Run the application:

npm start

The app will:

1. Open the specified Google Drive URL
2. Click the play button (class: VYBDae-Bz112c-RLmnJb)
3. Capture audio for 10 seconds
4. Save the audio to captured_audio.webm

Configuration

Edit index.js to customize:

• TARGET_URL: The URL to open
• PLAY_BUTTON_CLASS: The class name of the play button
• Recording duration (currently set to 10 seconds in the setTimeout call)

Notes

• The browser launches in non-headless mode by default so you can see what's happening
• Audio is captured using the Web Audio API from media elements on the page
• If the play button class doesn't match, the script will try alternative selectors
• The captured audio is saved as a WebM file

Troubleshooting

If audio capture doesn't work:

1. Make sure the page has audio/video elements playing
2. Check browser console for errors (visible in non-headless mode)
3. Try adjusting the wait times if the page loads slowly
4. Ensure the play button selector is correct
