Simple program to download a Udemy course, has support for DRM videos but requires the user to aquire the decryption key (for legal reasons).
Windows is the primary development OS, but I've made an effort to support linux also.

1. You would need to download ffmpeg, aria2c and mp4decrypter (from Bento4 SDK) and ensure they are in path (typing their name in cmd should invoke them).

quick and dirty how-to

You will need to get a few things before you can use this program:

• Decryption Key ID
• Decryption Key
• Udemy Course URL
• Udemy Bearer Token (aka acccess token for udemy-dl users)

• rename .env.sample to .env (you only need to do this if you plan to use the .env file to store your bearer token)
• rename keyfile.example.json to keyfile.json

• Firefox: Udemy-DL Guide
• Chrome: Udemy-DL Guide
• If you want to use the .env file to store your Bearer Token, edit the .env and add your token.

It is up to you to aquire the key and key id. Please don't ask me for help acquiring these, decrypting DRM protected content can be considered piracy.

• Enter the key and key id in the keyfile.json
• 
• 

You can now run the program, see the examples below. The course will download to out_dir.

usage: main.py [-h] -c COURSE_URL [-b BEARER_TOKEN] [-q QUALITY] [-l LANG] [-cd CONCURRENT_DOWNLOADS] [--skip-lectures] [--download-assets]
               [--download-captions] [--keep-vtt] [--skip-hls] [--info]
