Why this task doesn't download video from packt?

In my configFile.cfg I have like this:

[DOWNLOAD_DATA] download_folder_path: D:\me download_formats: pdf, video, code

I recall something like that happening before 1.4.2 version of the script, are you using the fresh version? Could you check what's the version of the script you're running (pip freeze | grep packt on Debian derived GNU/Linux system)?

Yes, you're right!

I have two different catalogues with a script on my PC. One is the newest, I'm upgrading him using the program "GitHub for desktop", and the second catalogue - I'm abandoned this because I had a problem with it.

And - first - it is 1.5.1 second - 1.4.2 :)

I thought that I really abandoned this second one, but I've checked one more time my "schtasks.exe" and my "*.bat" file and.. My 'bat' task was in the first-good catalogue, but it using the script from the second catalogue.

It was my mistake. Your answer contributed to the repair of the script on my PC - Thank you for it! :-)
