Hi,
I've been trying to download all the videos present in .mp4 format on
this website under the download tab : "http://nptel.iitm.ac.in/
video.php?courseId=1026"
I've tried using recursive download specifying only .mp4 format but no
luck.

Anyhelp would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Hi Jayer,

I have visited the website.
In this case I suggest you to create an input file.
The input file could contain all URLs.
One URL per line, for example...

http://nptel.iitm.ac.in.s3.amazonaws.com/mp4/1026/lec01.mp4
http://nptel.iitm.ac.in.s3.amazonaws.com/mp4/1026/lec02.mp4
http://nptel.iitm.ac.in.s3.amazonaws.com/mp4/1026/lec03.mp4
...
http://nptel.iitm.ac.in.s3.amazonaws.com/mp4/1026/lec42.mp4

Then you can use the --input-file option.
Please see wget manual for more information.

Best Regards,
Khomsan

Or you can use the "New Multiple" command and put all URLs.
This method will allow simultaneous downloads of your files.
