Unable to download Instagram Videos about instascrape HOT 2 CLOSED

Hello Jackson!

get_recent_posts returns an unscraped Post object so all you have to do is call scrape on x before using the download method. Thanks for pointing this ambiguity out! I will make this exception clearer for future users, your contribution is greatly appreciated 😄

i.e.

google_hashtag = Hashtag('https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/google/')
google_hashtag.scrape()
for x in google_hashtag.get_recent_posts():
    x.scrape()        #Call scrape on x before downloading
    if x['is_video'] is True:
        x.download('tmp.mp4')
        break

Sorry about that! Thank you for the help. I couldn't find anything mentioned about this in the doc and it worked with photos so I thought I was doing something wrong. Appreciate it.
