Video downloader script - API Developers

#1 Posted by poweld (11 posts) - 6 months, 12 days ago

It's been long overdue since I actually wrote this a ways back. I don't know if anybody would find this useful, but I created a pretty simple script written in Perl that will get the latest videos from any of the feeds for any quality type. I've posted it up at http://www.imadethatcow.com/Development/gb_downloader.tar.gz

This is a handy script that can be used in a cron job for grabbing the latest videos on a regular basis. It will not re-download anything you've already downloaded (provided you do not move the video from it's original location). Use --help to find out all the options for running it.

Send me a PM or reply to this topic if you have any questions!

@poweld: Would this work with HD video downloads? (assuming you have a premium account, of course)

@neurotech Absolutely it does. You will of course need to authenticate with the GB server in order to get HD videos, but as long as you are a premium member you will be allowed to.
