Some little utilities I use a lot working with Vimeo and YouTube. They'll become more robust over time. Pull requests welcome.
The only requirement is requests. You probably need Python 2.7.
To install, pip install git+https://github.com/whatisjasongoldstein/scruffy-video.git#egg=scruffy-video

YouTube now requires at API key, which is lame.
