Download video

[arthur_cti]

Can you tell why you can't download vimeo and youtube videos with this code? Would they have a solution?

import requests

url = "https://vimeo.com/133436413"

r = requests.get(url, stream = True)

with open("test.mp4","wb") as a:
    for chunk in r.iter_content(chunk_size=1024):
         if chunk:
             a.write(chunk)

That's just the hosting Vimeo address,not the real download link.
Can try to scrape it out address,but this can be difficult.

Can use youtube-dl,it's written in Python.
It's has a really big code base look at Github.
It works for 100's of sites also Vimeo.

pip install youtube-dl
Command line:

G:\1_youtube
λ youtube-dl https://vimeo.com/133436413

Output:

From code:

import youtube_dl

ydl_opts = {
    'format': 'bestvideo[height<=?720]+bestaudio/best',
    'outtmpl': '%(title)s.%(ext)s',
    'noplaylist' : True,
}

with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL(ydl_opts) as ydl:
    ydl.download(['https://vimeo.com/133436413'])

I installed the pytube library (https://pypi.org/project/pytube/). Do you know?

Could you tell how do I download multiple videos at the same time, having the video link?

If possible, would you be able to provide sources so that I can study?

print("Downloading...")
from pytube import YouTube
YouTube('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7oQEPfe-O8').streams.first().download()
print("Finish")

https://pypi.org/project/pytube/ has examples

from pytube import Playlist
pl = Playlist("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Edpy1szoG80&list=PL153hDY-y1E00uQtCVCVC8xJ25TYX8yPU")
pl.download_all()
# or if you want to download in a specific directory
pl.download_all('/path/to/directory/')

Yes,that's specific to download from Youtube and will not work for sites like Vimeo as youtube-dl do.

Could you tell how do I download multiple videos at the same time, having the video link?.

If using playlist url as posted bye @Axel_Erfurt it will download all video's in that playlist,work the same in youtube-dl.
An other way is to put url in list and loop over it,will download all in list
For all to start same time most look into Threading eg concurrent.futures — Launching parallel tasks

If possible, would you be able to provide sources so that I can study?

All code is available on Github pytube | youtube-dl.
For more basic web-scraping look at Web-Scraping part-1.

I have a problem with youtube_dl. Downloading is too slow (vimeo). Knew how to speed up the download, found nothing in the information document.

There is nothing much you can do for a single file it depend or your network speed of host that get file from.
I have never been worried about speed as just let it run in background if eg dowlod a playlist.

What to mean bye slow?

youtube-dl https://vimeo.com/133436413

It's not super fast,but not that slow either.
