viewtube is awesome, how can I redirect all requests from YouTube.com to myviewtub.domain? (alien.top)

Hi all,

I'm using viewtube for 3 days, and I love it.

My next step is migrate all request to that service, I test the video/playlist url os the same, and I use pi-hole as my local dns server.

Is possible to rewrite the domain on pi-hole? like any request to YouTube.com/watch?v=v43DXkj5b0I to mydomain.com/watch?v=v43DXkj5b0I ?

I was reading pi-hole docs and I can't find anything useful for this feature.

​

Thank you.

i have something similar with another service.

  1. local DNS (dnsmasq) to redirect requests (officialservice.com -> localservice.local)
  2. localservice.local is my apache proxy setting headers and opening all http requests to replace the links inside the page

​

quick example

ProxyHTMLEnable     on

[...]

ProxyHTMLURLMap     /aaa    /bbb/ccc

[...]

AddOutputFilterByType INFLATE;SUBSTITUTE;DEFLATE application/x-javascript
Substitute 's|/service/aaa/|/service/bbb/|nq' Substitute 's|/domain/res/|/anotherdomain/res/|nq'

Don't forget to Import your own CA into every device or you will get ssl/tls errors. And good luck to import it into devices like a chromecast...
