1:31
with the Tumblr API in the background So
1:33

1:35
folder and now we have the actual video
1:38
playing So it is in MP4
1:40

device and play it very easily So this
1:46
is actually a module that I found out

1:51
of times So there is no kind of
1:53
restriction So again you come to the you
1:56
copy the link and again you paste it
1:59
inside this Python script So there is no
2:03
site no kind of restriction that how
2:05
many videos you can download So you can
2:07
try this unlimited number of times So
2:09
once again we execute and once again it
2:13
will download this
2:15
video So it's a very great module you'll
2:19
see once again a brand new video will be
2:23
downloaded and I recently discovered
2:26
this module last week which is a Python
2:29
open-source module
2:32
YTDLP So in the background it
2:34
communicates with the Tumblr API So you
2:37
don't need to pass any sort of API key
2:40
or nor you need to have
2:43
authenticated You can do this unlimited
2:45
number of time You can see the video has
2:47
been saved
2:51
So now let me show you the actual module
2:55
So if you go to the website here which
2:59
is uh py p i o rg which is the website
3:05
for python modules So here you just need
3:08
to search for this module
3:10
ytdlp which is a this library we are
3:13
talking about So the command is simple
3:16
You simply execute this command the pip
3:18
command So I have already downloaded So
3:21
just create a simple app py file and
3:24
here you just need to import this module
3:26
So ytdlp and also we need to import the
3:29
operating system module and here you
3:31
specify the video URL So whichever video
3:34
you need to download So you specify the
3:38
link After specifying the link you
3:41
simply specify the location where you
3:44
need to download this So we will create
3:46
a folder which will be downloaded videos
3:49
inside this the title and the extension
3:51
will come and then we will create this
3:53
folder by using the operating system
3:56
module inside Python After that we
3:58
specify the
4:00
options So these this JSON object
4:03
contains three options The first option
4:06
is where you save the
4:08
video So which is this location here
4:10
that we specified in this variable The
4:12
second option is the format of the video
4:14
So we are specifying the best video and
4:17
the best audio quality
4:19
And the third one is the quality sorry
4:21
MP4 extension of the
4:24
video And after that we will pass these
4:27
options to this function
4:29
yt DLP And it contains this function
4:33
YouTube
4:37
ytl
4:40
options and then it contains this
4:42
function download which will actually
4:44
download the actual Tumblr video So this
4:48
is the thing guys If I once again run
4:51
this now you will see that downloading
4:53
will start It is saying that YTDL
4:56
options are not
4:59
defined Sorry YDL
5:05
sorry So let me just delete this folder
5:08
once again Create
5:11
this So you can see there is no sort of
5:14
restriction is there You can do this
5:17
process unlimited number of time With
5:19
many modules there will be a restriction
5:22
but this module doesn't have any sort of
5:24
restriction You can see you can download
