To download the dataset, you can directly run the following script, which will create a subdirectory wsvd inside your working folder, and directly start downloading the videos in the dataset. The dataset is approximately 50G.
bash downloader_script.sh
Please note that you will need to have the youtube-dl module.
If you would like to generate the video ID list again, you will need a YouTube API key. In that case, create your YouTube API key, and fill it in the script valid_id_list_creator.py, then run it with python valid_id_list_creator.py
