# download series
Have you ever watched a series from a streaming video? Ever wanted to download
them to replay them as many times as possible without the overhead of waiting
for the stream to load again the same frames and packets?

Then this is the script for you.

## Installation

Run `./install.sh`

## Usage

Create the folder where you want to download the series and move to that
folder. For example:
```bash
mkdir The_Wire
cd The_Wire
```

Then proceed to use the script:

```bash
download_series.py $SERIES_NAME
```

For example;

```bash
download_series.py the wire
```

Or:

```bash
download_series.py the_wire
```

and even weird capitalization and superfluous spaces

```bash
download_series.py THE WiRe
```

But not:

```bash
download_series.py the_wiree
```

Or:

```bash
download_series.py thewire
```

PS: You should really watch [The
Wire](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wire)
