I am trying to download videos from Tumblr blogs using their API. The tumblr api provides links to the videos but they are iframe links, like the following format:
"player": [
{
"width": 250,
"embed_code": "<iframe src=\"//player.vimeo.com/video/47408739?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0\" width=\"250\" height=\"140\" frameborder=\"0\" title=\"Worlds: The Kepler Planet Candidates\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe>"
}
]
Is there a way that I could actually download that video, seeing as how all that the API provides is a link to vimeo, rather than an actual .mp4 file or something.
There was this post but it seems the api has changed, and they are dealing more specifically with vimeos api, whereas I am interested in doing this through tumblr.
Thanks!
Vimeo does not support any technique for downloading third party videos. The only way to access video files for Vimeo videos is to have a PRO account, and access videos you already own.
