I was attempting to download some reddit videos that I found using several extensions and websites, but there is no audio in the video, so I decided to write a Python script that can download both audio and video files. We can download them all by using a RedDownload library! let’s get started.

RedDownload is a simple library for downloading videos from Reddit with sound. The library may also be used to download pictures and even galleries by simply entering a reddit post link.

To install RedDownload, run this in your terminal:

pip install RedDownloader

NOTE :

This package only downloads media from posts with images/video directly uploaded to Reddit, not from sites like Imgur or YouTube / Vimeo that are posted to Reddit.

RedDownloader is authless, which means you don’t need a praw bot to use it.
After importing, downloading is as simple as a single line of code.

Downloading Video

Here are some of the parameters to consider when downloading a video:

Parameters downloading video

We can also use to download videos/images from our favorite subreddits

Downloading videos/images in subreddits

Also there are some of the parameters we need to consider

Parameters Downloading Videos/Image Subreddits

In subreddits, we can also select which format we want to download

We can also specify which formats we can download

I’ve also written a script using this library; give it a try! [ Here ] Also, please provide feedback to help improve this repository. Thanks!
