From f74e22ae280ac1680251350c4672abfeb2a047fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gergely Imreh <imrehg@gmail.com> Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2011 18:54:47 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Enable artist playlists in YoutubePlaylistIE Artist playlist pages have different format compared to user playlists, thus more format checking is needed to construct the correct URL. From the artist playlist this method downloads all listed below the "Videos by [Artist Name]" header, plus usually there's one more video on the side, titled "Youtube Mix for [Artist Name]", which has a link format that currently cannot be distinguished from the other videos in the list. --- youtube-dl | 14 ++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/youtube-dl b/youtube-dl index a4c8f24942..dd875a38ea 100755 --- a/youtube-dl +++ b/youtube-dl @@ -2096,8 +2096,8 @@ class YahooSearchIE(InfoExtractor): class YoutubePlaylistIE(InfoExtractor): """Information Extractor for YouTube playlists.""" - _VALID_URL = r'(?:http://)?(?:\w+\.)?youtube.com/(?:(?:view_play_list|my_playlists)\?.*?p=|user/.*?/user/|p/)([^&]+).*' - _TEMPLATE_URL = 'http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=%s&page=%s&gl=US&hl=en' + _VALID_URL = r'(?:http://)?(?:\w+\.)?youtube.com/(?:(?:view_play_list|my_playlists|artist)\?.*?(p|a)=|user/.*?/user/|p/)([^&]+).*' + _TEMPLATE_URL = 'http://www.youtube.com/%s?%s=%s&page=%s&gl=US&hl=en' _VIDEO_INDICATOR = r'/watch\?v=(.+?)&' _MORE_PAGES_INDICATOR = r'(?m)>\s*Next\s*</a>' _youtube_ie = None @@ -2125,13 +2125,19 @@ class YoutubePlaylistIE(InfoExtractor): return # Download playlist pages - playlist_id = mobj.group(1) + # prefix is 'p' as default for playlists but there are other types that need extra care + playlist_prefix = mobj.group(1) + if playlist_prefix == 'a': + playlist_access = 'artist' + else: + playlist_access = 'view_play_list' + playlist_id = mobj.group(2) video_ids = [] pagenum = 1 while True: self.report_download_page(playlist_id, pagenum) - request = urllib2.Request(self._TEMPLATE_URL % (playlist_id, pagenum)) + request = urllib2.Request(self._TEMPLATE_URL % (playlist_access, playlist_prefix, playlist_id, pagenum)) try: page = urllib2.urlopen(request).read() except (urllib2.URLError, httplib.HTTPException, socket.error), err:
