SuperRipper is a free video ripper script to mass download videos, pictures and other content that are linked or embedded in html web sites.

SuperRipper will:

- scan html files

- following through any click-depth

- for linked or embeded video/audio/pic stuff (you define file extension),

- put filtered file links into a download queue,

- and start a real multithreaded download process with 1-16 parallel downloads (auto sorted re-naming downloaded files).



It also uses "link-stripping" for link-in-link type urls. (you know these link: http://some.com/what.php?link_url=http: ... =wherefrom)

It also supports flv files from YouTube + Altavista, Alltheweb, Google ...

You can add direct search links to start ripping from e.g. YouTube + keywords

It also can follow search pages: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10... etc.

Can download some mass, so be careful with your discspace...



Give it a look & try if curious.

cheers,
fures

PS: I used some code from other coders in my script:
- HTTPQueryInfo from olfen
- Eval - evaluate arithmetic expressions from Laszlo
Thanks for them.

Download the latest version from the link in the next post.
Enough to download the main program (SuperRipper.exe or .ahk) - that will install the other stuff (downloader and icons).

I fiddled a bit with speed optimization...

Updated version at my site:

[updated links: 2009-07-09]
Windows exe:
VidRipper.exe




These are not needed for running the exe (will be installed automatically)

Script ahk:
VidRipper.ahk
VidRipper_Dnl.ahk

Icons are also located there:
down.ico
error.ico
info.ico
ok.ico
search.ico

Looks very nice. Only seems a bit too much work for ripping bad quality videos from youtube.

@ fures
Thx for sharing it. Btw, which tool you used to create that commented screenshot?

@Guest
Yepp. But I still enjoy it...

@Bobo
The tool is simply PowerPoint (sorry...)

By the way, the point here is the proof of concept for a multi-threaded download technology.

The problem was that in AHK, URLDownloadToFile is a little rigid: It freezes running until download is done or timed out, and does not indicate progress. Thus it is not possible to run several downloads parallely.

Now this script contains a method for solving this issue:
The script creates a download queue and uses another script for downloading files in the queue. With this method, each download is a separate instance and the main script can run undisturbed during the downloads.

Hi fures

Interresting script

Some blocking points for me :
- can't enter a proxy in interface
- My AHK is not in program files, changed

to

- In your main post, you should give the recommanded name for files (in particular for the downloader script, for which the name is mandatory )

So nicely done.

WOW

When I clicked ion the exe file, it didnt open....?
It ssays: pages cannot be displaced...
Help Please.


Thanks.

grateful, don´t quote whole posts, it´s annoing.

That is, because the files are not longer hosted on this server.
Sadly fures didn´t post his scripts on the forum or autohotkey.net,
so the scripts will not be available until fures puts them back there (or better here in the forum)

So sad that the files are not available now.. Hope you could put them back here.. Thanks in advance.

Yes this is a must have! Please reup.

Hi Forum,

Thanks for the interest for the missing files. They are reuped now and can be found here:

The exe file - installs all other stuff (downloader exe and icons)
http://wfures.eqnet.hu/my_ahk_updates/VidRipper.exe

The ahk files:
- main ripper script
http://wfures.eqnet.hu/my_ahk_updates/VidRipper.ahk
- downlaoder thread script
http://wfures.eqnet.hu/my_ahk_updates/VidRipper_Dnl.ahk

Hope you like it.
Best

Fures

Ok the weirdest thing happens. When I run the compiled version I get an error, SuperVidRipper does not exist and then it erases itself (kind wish I could do that actually). Same thing happens with the .ahk version.

I was looking forward to this

Let me tackle this now.

It works on my XP.
Do you run Vista?
Do you have UAC enabled?
Are you an admin user on your Vista?
