# Fetch a video
video_object = await client.get_video("<insert_url_here>")
# Information from Video objects
print(video_object.title)
# Download the video
config = DownloadConfigHLS(quality="best", path="./") # More options in the documentation
await video_object.download(config)
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(main())
