I recommend youtube-dl, in the meantime.

@crazy4groovy most conferences videos on InfoQ are not available on youtube ... hence the interest for this infoq-downloader ...

[crazy4groovy]

Check out youtube-dl supported sites, you can find it listed there. I've tried it, and it works fab.

Oh thats good to know, thanks for the info

@crazy4groovy hi, yes it downloads videos, but without the presentation it's quite useless. Is there maybe a way to download also the timed slides?

[crazy4groovy]

@invasionofsmallcubes It depends on the video how useful youtube-dl is, I suppose. I haven't found a way to download the slides as well..

Same error but different stacktrace. Note that I'm using Python3 (and pip3 to install dependencies)

~/src/infoq-downloader$ python3 infoq_downloader.py https://www.infoq.com/presentations/Simple-Made-Easy
