MStreamDownloader

Download Microsoft Stream videos.

This project was originally based on https://github.com/snobu/destreamer

Improvements in this fork:

Multithreading download through aria2c (much faster)
Possibility to choose the video resolution
API Usage
Much More :)

PoliMi students can use this fork too: https://github.com/sup3rgiu/PoliDown

PREREQS

Node.js: anything above v8.0 seems to work.
aria2: this needs to be in your $PATH (for example, copy aria2c.exe to c:\windows). downloader calls aria2c with a bunch of arguments in order to improve the download speed.
ffmpeg: a recent version (year 2019 or above), in $PATH.

Windows Installation instructions

(On others OS is pretty much the same)

N.B: this video was done for https://github.com/sup3rgiu/PoliDown, but the process is the same.

You can omit the password argument. MStreamDownloader will ask for it interactively and then save it securely in system's keychain for the next use.
