How to use youtube-dl script to download starting from some index in a playlist?
I have total 135 videos in my playlist. I have successfully downloaded 38 of them. So I manually used this command.
youtube-dl --playlist-start 39 -u [email protected] -p mypassword https://www.udemy.com/learn-ethical-hacking-from-scratch/learn/v4/content
Its downloading my remaining 97 videos.
youtube-dl --help
, contains:
Video Selection: --playlist-start NUMBER Playlist video to start at (default is 1) --playlist-end NUMBER Playlist video to end at (default is last) --playlist-items ITEM_SPEC Playlist video items to download. Specify indices of the videos in the playlist separated by commas like: "--playlist-items 1,2,5,8" if you want to download videos indexed 1, 2, 5, 8 in the playlist. You can specify range: "--playlist-items 1-3,7,10-13", it will download the videos at index 1, 2, 3, 7, 10, 11, 12 and 13.
Thus, the option --playlist-start NUMBER
should help you to start the playlist in the middle, specified by NUMBER
