Downloading course videos using itunes

So I already know how to download videos using itunes but some videos don't have a feed link with them so I am wondering if there is any way that I can still download them.

I am having issues with my bandwidth now so I kind of need to download the videos to watch them continuously.

Please help!

Hi Edward,

I found it easier (in a situation similar to yours) to just download the videos upfront when enough bandwidth is available:

Thanks. I already have looked into this method. It works but its very tedious to download each and every video in a course :( Is there any other way to download using iTunes without the feed link?

This is the only way to get the materiel? I don't want or need iTunes! It is an invasive piece of software and really only works for those who have a stomach for Mac or apple products. MAKE THE MATERIAL AVAILABLE FOR NON ITUNES PEOPLE!!!

Hi John Mutch !

I use Apple hardware but I don't like iTunes, too :) ...hence my post "I found it easier (in a situation similar to yours) to just download the videos upfront when enough bandwidth is available" - I should have written "I found it easier (in a situation similar to yours) to just download the videos upfront WITHOUT iTunes when enough bandwidth is available" as there is a Downloads section for every video where you can download the video:

Greetings, Holger Liesegang

I totally agree with your method, it is the only way I can D/L any material on Treehouse. I just wish they would not be exclusive. I know eventually I will have to go iTunes if I want to work with the iOS tracks. More than half the world working stiffs use windows everyday. Oh, well at least my time here is free thanks to CodeOregon.

Has anybody found a way to download course videos all at once without using iTunes?

I recall someone writing some code that would do this years ago when they first launched. If I find the link ill add it to this post.
