# Download Helper Mediathek View Web

Helper to download SRF videos with the help of MediathekViewWeb.

## How it works

Use MediathekViewWeb to download the index-file (`m3u8` playlist file). Pass URL and video name to 

script to download all segments of the video file. After that all segments get concatenated by `ffmpeg` to a 

single video file.

Afterwards it deletes all intermediate files (index, segments, etc.).

## How to use

- Make sure `ffmeg` is installed and available on `$PATH` (e.g. accessible from command line)

- Make sure you have at least `bash v3.2.57` (check with `bash --version`)

- Download version from [lastest release](https://github.com/iodar/download-helper-mediathek-view-web/releases)

- The basic syntax is `./download-srf-videos.sh "[index-url-from-mediathek]" "[final-video-name]"`

### 1. Get URL From MediathekViewWeb

Open `www.mediathekviewweb.de` and search for `srf` videos.

### 3. Done

After the script finished your video is ready.
