I've modified this code to download video & audio segmented and encode them in one .mp4 file: https://gist.github.com/paschoaletto/7f65b7e36b76ccde9fe52b74b62ab9df

i have merged all gists into a repo here: https://github.com/eMBee/vimeo-download

How can I download Bitmovin Player videos which are embedded as XHR types of multiple-segmented files with iFrame?
