Lectures are (seemingly) randomly getting skipped #628

Closed acefalobi closed 3 years ago

acefalobi commented 3 years ago

I tried to download a course from a udemy account, it downloads some lectures, but others just get skipped with no errors or warnings. When I try to list the lectures, the same thing happens. It shows the number of lectures, but only lists some or none of them.

Udemy course URL: [https://softcom.udemy.com/course/machinelearning]. (I can email you the credentials if need be).

Command: python udemy-dl.py https://softcom.udemy.com/course/machinelearning/ to download and python udemy-dl.py https://softcom.udemy.com/course/machinelearning/ --info to list the lectures.

This is a snippet of what I get when I try to list the lectures:

You can see that the first chapter says 14 lectures but only shows 2 and the following ones don't even show any at all.

After further investigation of the code, it seems the stream_urls parameter is null in some assets, even though they are videos. Any thoughts as to what might be causing this?

Example:

{
  '_class': 'asset',
  'asset_type': 'Video',
  'body': '',
  'captions': [...],
  'download_urls': None,
  'external_url': '',
  'filename': 'ML-is-the-future.mp4',
  'id': 7236304,
  'slide_urls': [],
  'stream_urls': None,
  'time_estimation': 397,
  'title': 'ML_is_the_future.mp4'
}

I think it's the same issue as this

acefalobi commented 3 years ago

True. Do you know why the stream_urls might be returning for some lecture videos and not others?

iaman1998 commented 3 years ago

I am facing the same issue.

lets discuss the issue in #627, closing this as dup
