Hi, I'm no more using this scrip as the youtube-dl can do it by its own. It can also download videos from another popular site like udemy an so. Please have a look. |
|
Hi, Ah OK. Can YouTube-dl manage full batch downloads so I can get a full course rather than single videos from Oreilly? |
|
Yes this tool can download whole video course. |
|
Great many thanks. I’ve been trying for ages to get full courses but I’m
not good at coding etc so I find it a bit challenging. Do you know if
anyone has written a guide on how to do it.

So here you are example how to download via youtube-dl -u [email protected] -o '%(playlist_title)s/%(playlist_index)s-%(title)s.%(ext)s' -f 'bestvideo[height<=720]+bestaudio/best[height<=720]/worst' https://learning.oreilly.com/videos/node-js-api-masterclass/9781800569638/You can adjust quality and output as you need. Check manual pages for more options. This is one i use. |

So, I assume I can either use the same folder that I use for getting books
from safari, or I simply make a new folder. Ive just tried both of those
ways and have but my email in the script (no password!! - or do I put
":mypassword" after the email address?)
I get an error anyway.

Yeah sorry I understood that part. Do I need the youtube-dl repository from
Github https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl.git ?

Hi,
Yes once I realised there was a specific youtude-dl repository I got it
working. Thankyou for helping. Im grabbing some videos right now but I just
need to work out how to stop it from adding characters to the file name
such as...
1. Lesson 1 - Getting Started with IPv4 Addresses*-0_cs1sxl8j*.mp4
(where "-0_cs1sxl8j" has been added)

You're welcome. |

Hi again Do you the books downloader too? I use it but would like to know how I could tweak the .py to prompt for book ID as well as email addy and password. Any ideas |
|
You can tweak it as much as you want. For argument parsing you can use argparse python module. |
|
I’m literally on day 1 of learning python but I will certainly hit it a go.
Thanks
