Video Downloader

A CLI tool to download videos from vider.info.

I was really bored and needed few clips ;)

Installing

You can install the required libraries using pip:

git clone [email protected]:dwabece/vider-dl.git

and

pip install -r requirements.txt requirements-dev.txt

Usage

First, just run it and check the help:

python3 gox.py --help

The script has a shebang at the beginning so after setting correct permissions chmod +x gox.py you can use it as every other bash script: ./gox.py https://video-u.rl. It's because I'm lazy and perfer typing ./ over python3.

Download single video

To download a single video just run:

./gox.py https://some-video/+url

Download videos from a queue file

To download multiple videos from a file containing URLs (one URL per line), run:

./gox.py --queue-file=list-of-videos.txt

Solving captchas

Every now and then you you will get banned. In that case, calm down, I got your back. The script will prompt you and it will look like this:

╰─$ ./gox.py https://XD/11m8
Downloading video from: https:/XD/11m8
Processing [1/1]: https://XD/11m8

Captcha text:

What you need to do is open file named captcha_image.png that's located in the script directory and type what you see on the image. No worries, the script will do it's work.

If you'll fail to solve the captcha, no worries, you'll get prompted again and the image will be overwritten so just open it and pass the new captcha.
