We need to create bat script that will store all the information we need to quickly and easily download videos from pluralsight. Create a new file and name it 'pluralsight.bat'. Put it in the same folder as youtube-dl.exe (from step 1).
for %%a in (%*) do (
.\youtube-dl.exe ^
--username YOUR-USERNAME-HERE ^
--password YOUR-PASSWORD-HERE ^
%%a ^
-o "C:/Users/YOUR-USERNAME-HERE/Videos/Pluralsight/%%(playlist)s/%%(chapter_number)02d - %%(chapter)s/%%(playlist_index)02d - %%(title)s.%%(ext)s" ^ --sleep-interval 35 ^
--max-sleep-interval 120 ^
--sub-lang en ^
--sub-format srt ^
--write-sub
)
- Remember to add your own username, password and the path to where you want the videos to be stored. Replace YOUR-USERNAME-HERE, YOUR-PASSWORD-HERE and YOUR-NAME-HERE.
- If you wish to change the formatting of the output video files, you can learn more about it here.
In order to run the scripts, you need to open up a command prompt or Windows PowerShell. Navigate to the folder you have the script and youtube-dl.exe. Hold left-shift and right mouse click in the folder, and select 'Open PowerShell Window here' or the 'Command Prompt' equivalent.
All you have to do now in order to download pluralsight videos, is to run:
