Downloads hanging, not continuing to search for new videos

[rocketeer55]

Hi all,

I am having an issue where my Floatplane-Downloader container is hanging, and not completing the download process. I was originally having an issue where my container would crash (see https://github.com/Inrixia/Floatplane-Downloader/issues/153), but I added --restart=unless-stopped to my unraid container config, so at least my container stays running now. However, the container will stop grabbing new videos shortly after it has been spun up. Logs below:

This final line in the logs was posted probably 12-14 hours ago. No additional lines in the logs have been created since then. The container is still running. Normally I would expect to see the Checking for new videos in 5 minutes message show up. The 'FP Exclusive: Working for LMG Full Interviews (Pt. 1)' video has not completed downloading (the download is also not progressing based on watching the file size). Seems to me like some error was thrown that isn't being handled properly in the downloading process.

Currently my solution to this bug is a script that restarts the container every 24 hours... however I noticed that by doing this, this container will process and 'download' all the last 15 episodes even if they have already been successfully downloaded and imported into my Plex library. I'm guessing this is because the whole download process is never completing and these episodes are not being marked as downloaded in this container's db, even though they show in Plex?

Have you tried the dev build? You can try stopping the container, deleting the .partial files and restart.

Yea please try the dev build and see if it fixes your issues

Thanks guys, looks like the dev build is working! Any idea when these changes will be rolled into :latest ?

Usually takes a while before I do another release but I may do one soon.

Dev has been merged into master now so all fixes are live.
