曾经想过让你的视频平台摆脱大型科技公司的控制吗？


嗯，对于许多人来说，PeerTube 是一个相当不错的选择，因为它具有**开源和自托管的性质**。由 [Framasoft](https://framasoft.org/en/) 开发，开发人员一直忙于定期向 PeerTube 添加新功能。


当然，作为一个去中心化平台，它可能无法为你提供与 YouTube 相同的用户体验（或质量）。然而，它是 [最好的去中心化开源平台](https://itsfoss.com/mainstream-social-media-alternaives/) 之一。


这次，他们推出了一个新版本，即 **PeerTube V6**，并承诺将进行大量改进。 请允许我带你了解这些。


### ? PeerTube V6：有什么新内容？


![The PeerTube Mascot for V6.](/data/attachment/album/202312/11/162124km3onzxmvbti64sx.png)


PeerTube V6 版本是一个主要版本，根据从用户那里收到的反馈，**引入了社区最需要的一些功能**。


一些**关键亮点**包括：


* 视频章节
* 视频故事板
* 替换上传的视频
* 视频密码保护


#### 视频章节

你现在可以**向视频添加章节**以指定视频的不同部分。这是一个非常方便的小功能，**增强了观看者的体验**，使他们能够看到视频的内容。


正如你在上面看到的，在章节设置了特定的标题和时间码后，会出现标记将进度条分为不同的部分。


#### 视频故事板

V6 版本带来的另一个功能是**能够通过将鼠标悬停在进度条上或拖动进度条来预览视频**。


这也被称为“故事板”功能，它在大多数流行的视频流平台上都有，现在 PeerTube 也拥有它。


#### 替换上传的视频

有时会发生错误，错误编辑的视频会呈现给观众。幸运的是，有了 PeerTube V6，这一切都成为了过去。


用户现在只需点击几下即可选择**重新上传视频以替换旧视频**。这样做时，URL、标题、信息、统计数据和评论将保持不变。


但是，此功能必须由 PeerTube 实例的管理员启用才能工作。被替换的视频将被贴上“视频重新上传”标签。


#### 视频密码保护


![](/data/attachment/album/202312/11/162127gti8tzfj2lq93atp.png)


你现在可以决定**为视频设置密码**以限制访问或分发专有内容。


管理员和开发人员可以通过 PeerTube 的内部 **REST API** 获得更大的灵活性，他们可以**设置和存储任意数量的密码**，从而更轻松地授予/撤销对视频的访问权限。


#### ?️ 其他更改和改进


除了上述亮点之外，还有一些值得注意的改进：


* 更好的远程运行管理。
* SEO 和视频链接共享已得到改进。
* 针对辅助功能和键盘导航的各种修复。
* 视频播放器已得到改进，播放新视频时不再重新加载并保存当前播放器设置。

Ever wanted to run your video platform free from the clutches of Big Tech?

Well, for many, PeerTube has been a rather fine option thanks to its **open-source and self-hostable nature**. Developed by [Framasoft](https://framasoft.org/en/?ref=news.itsfoss.com), the developers have been busy adding new functionality to PeerTube regularly.

Sure, as a decentralized platform, it may not give you the same user experience (or quality) like YouTube. However, it is one of the [best decentralized open-source platforms](https://itsfoss.com/mainstream-social-media-alternaives/?ref=news.itsfoss.com) out there.

On that note, they have introduced a new release in the form of **PeerTube V6**, that promises to deliver quite a few improvements.

Allow me to take you through those.

## 🆕 PeerTube V6: What's New?

![a screenshot of the peertube mascot for the version 6 release](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/11/PeerTube_V6_a.png)

Taking pointers from the feedback they received from users, the PeerTube V6 release is a major version that **introduces some of the most requested features** from the community.

Some **key highlights** include:

**Video Chapters****Video Storyboard****Replace Uploaded Video****Password Protection for Video**

### Video Chapters

![a screenshot of peertube v6 video chapters support](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/11/PeerTube_V6_b.png)

You can now **add chapters to videos** for specifying different sections of a video. This is a very handy little feature that **enhances the experience of the viewer**, allowing them to see what's in store for a video.

As you can see above, after the chapters are set with their specific titles and time codes, markers will appear to divide the progress bar into different segments.

### Video Storyboard

![a screenshot of peertube v6 video storyboard support](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/11/PeerTube_V6_c.jpg)

Another feature that has arrived with the V6 release is the **ability to preview videos** by either hovering on the progress bar or dragging through it.

This is also known as a *storyboard* feature that is available on most popular video streaming platforms, and now PeerTube also has it.

### Replace Uploaded Video

![a screenshot of peertube v6 replace video feature](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/11/PeerTube_V6_d.png)

Sometimes mistakes happen, and an incorrectly edited video makes it through to the viewers. Luckily, with PeerTube V6, that is a thing of the past.

Users can now choose to **re-upload a video to replace an older one** with just a few clicks. When doing so, the URL, title, information, stats, and comments will remain unchanged.

However, this feature has to be enabled by the admin of the PeerTube instance to work. A “Video re-upload” tag will be affixed to the videos that have been replaced.

### Password Protection for Video

![a screenshot of peertube v6 password protection on videos](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/11/PeerTube_V6_e.png)

You can now decide to** set a password on videos** to restrict access, or to distribute exclusive content.

Admins and developers have more flexibility with PeerTube's in-house **REST API**, they can **set and store as many passwords as they want**, making it simpler to give/revoke access to videos.
