I'm using the following command on the latest code version in github: ./coursera-dl -u -p ml-foundations It perfectly downloads all video lectures and the corresponding subtitles, perfectly organized in subfolders. Thank you. Unfortunately, I can't see lecture slides (ppt or pdf).

Same problem here. As far as I can tell, the links to PDF files don't get added to the r.text in 'def get_page'. But from there on I am stuck and cannot help further (error in requests? just bad layout on courseras homepage? not for me to judge!), sorry.

Then it's easy to find pdf/ppt file. It's not a clever method, but I guess it might work. Well, I'm just a beginner of crawler, I really hope someone can improve this lib.
