This only allows downloading of things you paid for and probably breaks some EULA somewhere.

didn’t work

youtube-dl -u {YOUR USER NAME} -p flyable-saffron-bedouin -f 'best' [https://www.udemy.com/yourcourse](https://www.udemy.com/yourcourse)  -o '%(playlist)s/%(chapter_number)s. %(chapter)s/%(playlist_index)s. %(title)s.%(ext)s'

IMPORTANT

1. take extra care that the cookie file has tabs formatted correctly
2. also had to drop /courses/ from the url name

youtube-dl —cookies ./udemy-cookies.txt -o '%(playlist)s/%(chapter_number)s - %(chapter)s/%(playlist_index)s. %(title)s.%(ext)s' https://www.udemy.com/nodejs-api-masterclass/ --verbose

add this to start at ch 38 if the prev line fails

--playlist-start 38

youtube-dl —cookies ./udemy-cookies.txt -o '%(playlist)s/%(chapter_number)s - %(chapter)s/%(playlist_index)s. %(title)s.%(ext)s' https://www.udemy.com/modern-react-front-to-back/
