Below are some of my scripts which I used to download videos for offline viewing.

Script1: One day I come across a motivational blog which I liked it a a lot. Below script will download all the podcasts from that site for my offline listening 

	#!/usr/bin/env python

	import urllib2

	import re

	import subprocess for i in range(5):

	    URL=urllib2.urlopen('http://getbusylivingblog.com/podcasts/page/' + str(i)+'/')

	    for i in re.findall('[a-zA-Z0-9_]+.mp3', URL.read()):

	        subprocess.call(["youtube-dl", "http://traffic.libsyn.com/bennyhsu/"+i])    

Script2: I created below script to download video files from puppetlabs webinars which is good resource to know what is happening in and around Puppet labs.

	#!/usr/bin/env python

	import urllib2, re, subprocess

	response = urllib2.urlopen('http://puppetlabs.com/misc/webinars')

	html = response.read()

	data1 = re.findall('/webinars/[a-z0-9-]+', html)

	for link1 in data1:

	    str1 = 'http://puppetlabs.com'+link1

	    response2 = urllib2.urlopen(str1)

	    html2 = response2.read()

	    data2 = re.findall('player.vimeo.com/video/[0-9]+',html2)

	    for link2 in data2:

	        subprocess.call(["./youtube-dl", link2])

	response.close()

Will update this post with more of my scripts.
