Ptrick125 45 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Lately, Vine has become a lot more popular, and there are many, many good short clips that make good YouTube videos if compiled. Based off of Google trends, Vine Compilations are one of the top searched for videos, and the interest is still growing. http://seenive.com/ and http://www.vineviewer.co/ Both provide access to popular Vines, in which people appear to like. Is it possible to make a bot that could download the .mp4 file to a folder? The folder part is not a problem, but the extraction is what I am unsure about. I'm sure people would also pay to have a Vine collector tool... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gogetta 263 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I just scraped a bunch smack cam links from this site for a client. Anyway, he is doing exactly what you are wanting to do. I'll see what I can come up with because I was thinking of doing something like this after following a BHW thread.

Gogetta 263 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Okay, so it's actually simple to do this. I just wasn't sure so i wanted to test it first. Run this and it should save a video to your desktop. download file("https://mtc.cdn.vine.co/r/videos/678B9A78FE977856956528504832_1ae60a1d263.3.1_EMpcqCSPDgHZEmUNcDDWtktg3uxu3HRsgOJmJNnzRBmNmkUhgQQQZCMyJfB.QrH7.mp4", "{$special folder("Desktop")}\\video.mp4") 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I literally just got a video to download the way you just said, not even 30 seconds ago... are you reading my mind? Tomorrow I'm going to pull out the Reg-Ex and see what I can do...

Ptrick125 45 Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 According to the YouTube Product Forum, it is not a very good idea to monetize Vine compilations... I am still awaiting response from Vine on this matter however. That's not saying that you can not download videos for fun, or sell off the "service" to someone else to upload.
