Hello,

Thank you for for the beautiful script. Very useful.

I have a few suggestions :

Adding a total course and individual video download percentage. When downloading large videos it seems like it is frozen and I have to check network activity to make sure it is still downloading. It would be nice to have a visual indicator of how much is downloaded.
Is there a way to decrease file sizes ? It seems that if I download files individually using other m3u8 extensions "Live Stream Downloader", the file sizes are significantly different (800 mb vs 80 mb), seemingly same resolution.
When downloading MCQs, maybe download two html files, one with and one without the answers highlighted ?

Thanks a lot!

Thank you, @AlienFever for trying out the script and thanks again for the tip.

For first suggestion, I think a GUI would be better choice. Need to research on this or might rewrite script in another lang to achieve this. I will try adding a downloading and file counter to it.
The script directly download videos from their cloud storage in original format from an object storage bucket. For quality selection, I think we need to pass it to ffmpeg to stich the video chunks. Need an account which has that video files to test some methods.
Yes, we can do this. Let me try this today.

Thanks for suggestions.

Best, Sumeet.

@sumeetweb Any Update on above request?

No updates yet. I am prioritizing downloading the compressed video and option for downloading MCQs without answers from this list.

Please save the .env file. Also, the Course URL seems wrong.
