I wrote a python veoh downloader for Linux people (and Windows/Mac people who hate the veoh player) to use. It uses wxWindows for the GUI, but you can import and use it with your own interface, if you like.
Make sure to use quotes on the URL, if you run it on the command-line.
Installing
Console support
Installs like a standard python package.
Just run
python setup.py install
After installing it, make sure it runs like this:
veoh_download.py "http://www.veoh.com/videos/v6525744grmT6Jhz?source=featured&cmpTag=featured2&rank=0"
Firefox
If you want it to correctly handle veoh:// links in firefox you will need to set some stuff up.
- Type about:config into the address bar and press Enter.
- Right-click -> New -> Boolean -> Name: network.protocol-handler.external.veoh -> Value -> true
- Right-click -> New -> String -> Name: network.protocol-handler.app.veoh -> Value -> /usr/bin/veoh_downloader.py (Replacing /usr/bin/veoh_downloader.py with the full path to veoh_downloader.py.
- Ensure network.protocol-handler.expose-all is set to true.
Veoh changed the way the browser determines if you have the veoh plugin installed. You can trick it by using this with greasemonkey script: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/26078
