I would like to add support for other sites

[saikpr]

I would like to add few others video sites, which are not yet available but have similar source code as to that of other sites that have already been coded for.

I would like to know where to start, i know a little bit of python and cpp, enough to code and understand 90-95 % of all python code of youtube-dl.

for example , for starters i would like to add http://www.videoweed.es/ which is similar to novamov, whose code is available at https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/blob/master/youtube_dl/extractor/novamov.py

Indeed, videoweed.es extractor can be easily implemented in terms of novamov extractor - you'll just need to provide proper regexes and test (see youtube_dl/common/extractor/nowvideo.py)

I've extended our developer instructions. The new version (preview here) should explain just about everything you need to know. If you need any help, don't hesitate to post a pull request and ask for feedback, or create an issue here. Thanks!
