[BUG] Photo galleries from PornHub are not downloading

[blackgur]

Describe the bug Photo galleries from PH are not downloading.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Profile URL: https://www.pornhub.com/model/sa-shulya-slut
2. Whether or not "Download photos only from modelhub" is checked is irrelevant. With the checkbox unchecked, the program only creates a folder with the name of the photo album but does not download photos.
3. The only thing in the log is "Some posts didn't download. You can see them in the 'Missing posts' form.". But the missing posts are empty.

Release information (please complete the following information):

• Win11
• x64
• 2023.3.5.0

I need time to find out what happened. I think it might be because PornHub redirects to ModelHub for her albums, but ModelHub is showing 404 error (https://www.modelhub.com/sa-shulya-slut/photos).

[AAndyProgram]

Will be fixed in the next version. You will need to uncheck Download photo only from ModelHub.

[AAndyProgram]

Fixed. Please update to the latest release.

[blackgur]

After updating the app still does not download photos. Checkbox «Download photo only from ModelHub» removed for users who have 404 error on modelhub.

[AAndyProgram]

Hm... Interesting... Try to remove this profile from SCrawler and add it again with Download photo only from ModelHub unchecked.

[AAndyProgram]

I swear I tested this profile and everything was processed. The only thing I can guess is that the profile is already linked to the ModelHub downloader function.

[AAndyProgram]

You can also try changing the PhotoPageModel parameter in the user's settings file (in the user's settings path) to 0 (zero). Then restart SCrawler

[AAndyProgram]

Setting PhotoPageModel to 0 tells SCrawler to detect the page type again. PornHub value is 1 ModelHub value is 2

[AAndyProgram]

Have you tried?

[blackgur]

I tried deleting these users - didn't help. I tried changing the variables in user settings - did not help. I deleted them in the application + settings folder - didn't help.

When I have time I will try to download these users using a clean client.

[AAndyProgram]

Are you sure that "Download images" is checked in this user's settings?

[blackgur]

I don't know. Even from a clean client with the checkbox unchecked, the photos are not downloaded.

[blackgur]

Are you sure that "Download images" is checked in this user's settings?

Yeah, im sure

[AAndyProgram]

Try adding cookies. Even if it doesn't work, I can't help, sorry.

[blackgur]

Cookies don't help either. 🤷‍♂️

[AAndyProgram]

Sorry, I don't know what's going on. I can download it. You've seen the screenshot.

[blackgur]

I believe you. It's just not clear why I can't do it. I don't have any restrictions from the state on this site.

[AAndyProgram]

Where are you from? Maybe you can try to download via VPN?

[blackgur]

Central Asia. But private VPN didn't help either

[blackgur]

Do you have any mechanism for getting more detailed logs than you have now?

[AAndyProgram]

Central Asia. But private VPN didn't help either

Oh, sure, Cyrillic encoding. If you mean Russia, one guy from Russia told me last year that he can't download some posts, but he can see them and I can download them. The problem was solved through VPN. However, you say the VPN doesn't work.

Do you have any mechanism for getting more detailed logs than you have now?

Unfortunately no.

I've tested a clean install and confirm that without cookies, I can't download that person's albums either. Once I added the cookies, I downloaded all the photos. I'm attaching the settings for test. What should you do:

1. Create a new folder and unpack SCrawler into it
2. Unpack this archive into it too
3. Launch SCrawler
4. Open your PornHub settings and add cookies
5. Make sure the VPN is on
6. Click download

[blackgur]

No, not Russia. But I use Cyrillic encoding. Test settings didn't help - with or without VPN.

[AAndyProgram]

Sorry. I don't know what to say. I tried my best.

[blackgur]

At the same time profiles that have photos on modelhub download without any problems. Strange.
