I agree. this makes me want to download certain videos that I will rewatch like UPF or E3 content.

I download new videos every night using a python script I found online. It should work to download archived videos. You can run it at night using task scheduler in windows and the script will keep track of what videos or podcasts you have already downloaded.

I just plug in the necessary rss feeds from the website. I currently use:

https://www.giantbomb.com/videos/feed/high/?api_key= (your api key)

This downloads a 720p version. I will check to see if there are any questions that I can answer based on my usage.

TY for the reply.

No I am using Giantbomb agent plugin. (https://github.com/rspeicher/GiantBomb.bundle)

My internet is not good enough for consistent streaming so I download videos that interest me. I then put them into plex and have the agent plugin fill in the metadata. I was using the "Unique ID" according to rspeicher's instructions. I found the ID in the URL of the Video, but the shown ID has changed with the redesign and no longer works with the agent. I was able to find a "data-id" when looking at the page source that appears to be the correct Unique ID as far as the agent is concerned.

I figure it is a GB database change for the redesign and probably need to give rspeicher time or see if I can make a different agent myself.

Maybe wrong forum, but under the redesign I cannot find the show id to do a match for the plex plugin. I already did some testing with basic api calls.

Example UPF 10/26/18 (removed api info)

https://www.giantbomb.com/api/video/13711/ (this works)

new site makes the episode appear to be 11152

https://www.giantbomb.com/shows/unprofessional-fridays-10262018/2970-11152

What am I missing? Is there a way to find the appropriate number for the api call to work?
