[lymanzhang]

thank you for the great tool!

I tried the script, and the terminal pops information as follows.

But no any download happens, it seems the script stop to run. I just wonder what's wrong with me.

Did you installed needed requirements ? Also make sure you're using python3

pip install -r requirements.txt

[lymanzhang]

the system failed to install lxml version 3.6.4. So I install lxml version 3.7.3 instead. I'm not sure it is the reason.

[lymanzhang]

I changed to my another MAC Pro to run the script. The installation of requirements is OK.

lymanZHANGdeMacBook-Pro:kadenze-dl lymanzhang$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Requirement already satisfied: requests==2.10.0 in /Users/lymanzhang/anaconda/lib/python3.5/site-packages (from -r requirements.txt (line 1))

I run the script, below is the information pop out of console.

there still no any download happens.

My configuration.yml:

kadenze:
    login: "***@gmail.com"
    password: "***"
download:
    resolution: "720"                     # Video definition to download. Valid values are "720" or "360".
    path: "/home/user/videos/kadenze"     # The absolute path to download to
    courses:                              # Courses to download, as they appear in the URL
            - "creative-applications-of-deep-learning-with-tensorflow-iv"
            - "machine-learning-for-musicians-and-artists-v"

Maybe make sure the download path you've set does exist (home/user/videos/kadenze) ? I'm abroad right now but will look into it in a few days when I get back, to see if anything changed on the site.

[lymanzhang]

thanks...

[ruiguo-bio]

I tried the script today, it does not work either. Maybe the website changed.

[Gaarv]

Thanks for the head up. It seems indeed that there is something preventing basic link parsing (probably JS) and we don't get the individual sessions links (with videos) as a result.

I think it should be possible to get around this, I will make some tests.

[Gaarv]

It was really a simple change, I doubt it was intentional at all :) Links to sessions are now available from a JSON string, like most of the content instead of HTML. I tested the change successfully but will wait on @lymanzhang confirmation on his issue, which was probably the cause.

[ruiguo-bio]

I have an issue

[Gaarv]

Looks like you haven't changed the placeholder / default download directory in the configuration file, creating anything in "/home/user" would require root privileges.

[ruiguo-bio]

Yes, I forgot to modify the new configuration file. It's ok after setting the folder.

[lymanzhang]

Wonderful! it works well. thanks Gaarv a lot...

Cool, glad you got it working with the fix :) Thanks for reporting the issue !
