vmworld2019-session-urls's Issues

Cannot sync with github desktop

I'm trying to sync it with github desktop but it fails

the way to download with wget ;)

wget "https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/vmworld-usa-2019/ADV1045BU.mp4" --header="User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0" --header="Accept: image/png,image/*;q=0.8,*/*;q=0.5" --header="Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5" --header="Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate" --header="Referer: http://www.my-website.com"

Speed up downloads - avoid showing progress

Hi William,

Thanks for getting the download script available and noticed that with a quick change the download speeds can be improved.
In short all is needed is to disable the download progress meter with the $progressPreference variable.

I added the variable as seen in the snippet bellow :
Write-Host "Downloading $title ..."
$progressPreference = 'silentlyContinue'
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -Headers $headers -Outfile $title
}

In my case it meant that i went from sub 1.5 MB/s download to around 2.2MB/s with peaks > 4 MB/s .

Maybe worth to consider adding this option.

Cheers
Bruno
