Answer 1

? The link that you are using is NOT a html page.
? Therefore it doesn't return anything as html.

? Your link is a media link.
? Therefore you must stream it and download it. Something like this:

import requests

url = '/your/valid/ttdownloader/url'
with requests.get(url, stream=True) as r:
    with open('ouput.mp4', 'wb') as f:
        for chunk in r.iter_content(chunk_size=8192): 
            f.write(chunk)

NOTE:
The link that you posted in the question is now invalid.
Please try the above code with a newly generated link.
