adding youtube-dl? #23

I see you are unable to download the embeded vimio videos and I assume other external videos. If you include youtube-dl (might also need ffmpeg for some suff) as the video downloader you can easily has it download youtube videos or from other sights as long as they are on youtube-dl's list. It can also handle the embeded vimeo videos though I'm not sure how you would go about getting the "link". Here is a reddit post that shows who youtube-dl can download these embeded videos. I just tested it and it did work. https://www.reddit.com/r/youtubedl/comments/fzv58p/getting_some_embedded_vimeo_videos_from_a_webpage/ something to note when they tell you to filter urls that contain .json?base64_init=1 then copy it and relpace the text they just quoated wiuth .mpd they mean relace .json?base64_init=1 at the end on the link you just copied. Though I don't know how you would o about grabbing that link in the first place sadly. Hope this idea helps! Also aould be nice if we could set download location.

Hmm. I'm actually not too keen to add more features to this already bloated script plus me not having as much time as I did when I started this project. But I can see if there is a way (maybe as a separate script). Could you link me urls of yiff.party profiles which have embedded videos? This would help out a lot!

It's fine I completly understand that this was just a side thing. I might try my hand at makeing fork that adds that ability though I only know how to do basics web scraping. Here is some asmr video I managed to find https://yiff.party/vimeo/462801839

Thank you for the link! Also, if you want to fork this script, by all means, go for it! I really hope that you can do it, since the code is a mess and not really well documented. But if you try your hand at it, I can try to explain lines of code you have problems with.
