2 years ago It seems that the SponsorBlock server is out and for some reason spotify-dl depends on it, when it doesn't find it it ignores the conversion and gives an error.

2 years ago that's very frustrating. Do you know of any alternatives to spotify_dl?

2 years ago The sponsorblock API is used to fetch skippable segments and then the file is converted to mp3 in the post processor step. It looks like if the sponsorblock API is not available, the postprocessor errors out and the file will be downloaded but not converted to mp3.
You can take the downloaded files and convert them to mp3 using other converters in the meantime. I'll look at seeing if there's ways to skip sponsorblock if it is not accessible (or more correctly, fix the no-sponsorblock option to skip using it, which it doesn;t now)

2 years ago the converter helps in parts. If you use ffmpeg for example, it doesn't convert a downloaded playlist well. It works if it's just a file, it would be interesting to skip this check in case of server failures

2 years ago has this been fixed? I just attempted to download with the full intention of then manually converting the Webms - but it seems to be up and running and converting properly again mate.

The system downloads but does not convert to mp3 due to the error below, is there a way to skip this check? Because it does not convert and is in webm format
