More Python goodness! This time Blender Cookie talks you through getting started with Blender scripting in one of their excellent video tutorials.

In this Blender 2.5 video tutorial, I will be giving a full introduction to scripting in Blender Python.
In the first half of the video I will give an overview of the basics of Python in general, such as variables, for-loops, if-statements and functions.
The second half will focus on Blender’s bpy-module and it’s API, as well as performing some basic tasks like changing a Material’s Shader-type.

Hello,
how is it possible to watch the videos on Blender Cookie ?
And never before I was successful on this site.
Every time I'm catched in a linkloop with the same hint:
"Sorry
The creator of this video has not given you permission to embed it on this domain. This is a Vimeo Plus feature."
!??

Hi Tom,
http://vimeo.com/28203314 - the direct link to the vimeo video. If that doesn't work for you it is probably a broader vimeo issue.
536 videos btw! Seriously impressed!
Cheers,
Ben.
@Tom Aust:
I never had problems with Blender Cookie.
Did you try a different Browser? Are you using any proxy or other security measurement, which would try to open the vimeo video as an instance?
Also, you could go to Vimeo directly and look for the Blender Cookie Channel.
Thank you, Ben !

Hey Tom,
Usually when people get this error it is because you have a Flash/Ad blocker installed that is causing problems. If you add Blender Cookie to the whitelist then it should work. You can also try another browser. We have had a good few people report this error but it's not consistent and so it's been difficult to track down the exact cause.

i have firefox and chrome both with adblock no problems
My print(myName) does appear on my terminal display screen...
How do I get it to work as yours. Mac 10.6.8 / 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
OK I watched the video again and now I have it working! Thanks again.
@Tom Aust
Did you go to the vimeo site and download the player?
Hi Tom, everyone else is talking to you, and I like to be part of the in crowd, so I'm talking to you too, website link. :)
Thank you very much !
Yes, the link of Ben solved the problem. So, my browser, Opera, or better some setting i made, has a problem with the forwarding link, not with the video.
Many greetings
Tom
