it's not clear on how to get the authorization token

I think I found the token, but it gives me an error unauthorized message

Hi I'm not a dev but i need to download a video from tldv

I got lost at 8, I couldn't find the request

could you help out

same i also got lost at step 8

For step 8, search "auth" under the filter. The requests will be sorted and the auth request will be seen.

Copy the authorization including bearer.

If anybody is facing problem in setting up FFMPEG-

not works !!

I created a fork with working code

@cnovasj can you share with us?

Thanks. It's works.

I have forked one with some changes:

• Remove invalid characters from the filename
• Add "Bearer" to auth token if not present

its stoped working from today

Does anyone have a new working version ?

thanks! works like a charm!

Anyone could download from MACOS? I have tried but it doesn't work. I am able to enter the url and the token but it seems to show me on terminal, all transcription of the video but does not download the video or anything.
