I just tried it, did not work :(. Says failed to authenticate as username. I tried it on Saturday and it worked ok. Maybe they are blocking it?

It's working for me ... this was a godsend! Thanks a lot!

When was the last time you tried it?

Not working for me too with the same error.

Noticed the issue raised ( probably by you? ) - https://github.com/dgorissen/coursera-dl/issues/81

Edit: Tried this one ( https://github.com/jplehmann/coursera ) and it too failed for login.

Are you running Firefox at the same time as the script? :)

Yes that was me. I hope Coursera has not blocked it somehow...I think the dgorissen implementation is based on the other one, so not surprising the other one doesn't work either.
