Yeah animepahe recently got cloudflare, will probably be able to fix with selenium.

[Blatzar]

Looked into it, animepahe has cloudflare AND hcaptcha which will be promoted EVERY time you visit the site (wtf is this fort knox?). Cracking this is definitely possible, but it will take some time.

[ayushjaipuriyar]

Okay I get the fact that it updates every time I open up the site but for some reason as such on the browser site works fine but it shows error on animedl

[ayushjaipuriyar]

Also selenium doesnt fix the issue

[Blatzar]

Also selenium doesnt fix the issue

I'm well aware, it's just a step towards a fix. Before testing I thought it would solve since I've never seen a site use both cloud-flare and hcaptcha.

AND hcaptcha

Selenium can get past the cloud-flare, @AbdullahM0hamed tool to bypass hcaptcha just needs to get added correctly and the site will probably work.

[ayushjaipuriyar]

Ohh well let me try then Thanks for anime-downloader though

[LordShenron]

Waiting for the fix now ^_^ Luckily I had downloaded a lot of anime for now.

Whenever animepahe breaks i use animeout.xyz, its supported by anime downloader and the sizes are just a little bigger than animepahe, but in my opinion quality is better too.

Animepahe seems to be functional again but the bypassing seems to be incorrect now like hcaptcha has changed something @AbdullahM0hamed

[AbdullahM0hamed]

They changed a whole lot, added browser checks, rate limiting, the works. Still haven't succeeded with the new one.

[LordShenron]

Aren't they doing way too much for pirating ;_; Just yesterday I had to wait hours because i couldn't solved their hcaptcha

[ngomile]

Could be either of these things or perhaps how to acquire the challenges from https://hcaptcha.com/getcaptcha has been changed. But at least animepahe is accessible again but now the hcaptcha problem.

[AbdullahM0hamed]

Perhaps we should consider having ffmpeg as an optional dependendency and getting the m3u8 stream? Seems like a more plausible option to me.

[AbdullahM0hamed]

So this works: https://github.com/JimmyLaurent/hcaptcha-solver/blob/master/index.js, and it doesn't give any of the browser stuff. Haven't been able to replicate in python thus far, though

[ngomile]

I tried using it like so solveCaptcha('https://kwik.cx/f/v7WXWU6dq0fL').then(console.log).catch(console.error) but it isn't giving me anything useful. I think it might have stopped working.

[AbdullahM0hamed]

It still works, and on that example. After a while it outputs the pass token if you use it in the node console. That being said, I've managed to actually get the captcha, and will probably working on finishing it tomorrow (hopeful for success, not certain) - but it will take a bit longer than the previous version because of rate limiting.

[LordShenron]

but the speed 300kbps : (

@ayushjaipuriyar I actually tried many sites past few days and animefreak seems to be working just as good as animepahe, its fast and encodes are smaller.

still bigger i would say cause animepahe gives you 720p most of the time under 100mb-120mb freak is around 140-170mb nevertheless better than nothing

yes some newer currently airing anime are heavy in size while some are very good like, i downloaded "yesterday wo utatte" and it was 1.1gig for 13 ep, I would say its almost on par with animepahe.

[AbdullahM0hamed]

So, I've been trying for a few days to get the hcaptcha token, and despite sending all of the correct data, I've unable to actually succeed at getting a token on any of my tries (maybe because of the fact that the requests fucks up the formatting of at least one thing, 100% of the time), so I've decided to give up.

[ngomile]

Using the hcaptcha-solver module I've found that just letting it get the token and passing it to a function I made, this one:

async function generateFormData(url, token, headers = {}) {
    headers = { ...headers, Referer: url };
    let response = await request.get(url, { headers, ...OPTIONS });
    const { body } = response;
    const [, action] = body.match(/action="([^"]+)/);
    const { origin } = new URL(url);
    const bypassURL = `${origin}${action}`;

    const $ = cheerio.load(body);
    let form = {};
    $('form > input').each(function (ind, elem) {
        form[$(this).attr('name')] = $(this).attr('value');
    });

    Object.assign(form, {
        "id": $('strong').first().text(),
        "g-recaptcha-response": token,
        "h-captcha-response": token
    });

    return { bypassURL, form };
}

So generating the token if you are attempting to do it Python side might just be a matter of something just being slightly wrong but yeah tough to solve Python side. But I've found that on JavaScript it works like a charm.

[AbdullahM0hamed]

Yeah, that's been the most frustrating thing. I've also been using the javascript of hcaptcha-solver as a point of reference, and everything looks the same when I monitor the requests😭😭😭

[AbdullahM0hamed]

Maybe I'll try again, but I wouldn't count on me succeeding.

[LordShenron]

I just noticed that animepahe don't ask for human verification while accessing the website anymore. Just to be sure i tried it on multiple devices and it was not asking on any of them

[AbdullahM0hamed]

Kwik gives hcaptcha, though, and pretty much all of animepahe's videos are hosted on it.

Isn't that already bypassed by you, I thought pahe was broken because of human verification while accessing the site.

[Blatzar]

If they haven't changed much since the last time I checked you can probably access an m3u8 file used by the pahe without captcha.

[LordShenron]

I think they were testing hcaptcha while opening site too, but it was obviously stupid coz they already have that on kwik so now they removed it. But strangely it still don't work.

I am pasting the logs here with hopes that maybe something is changed. https://del.dog/animepahe-log.txt

[nate-moo]

nope the same as before

[C0nvert]

I can't find animepahe anymore as a listed provider. Is it sstill supported. Can you maybe explain in detail how to get the m3u8 access ?

You can use WFD downloader to download from animepahe.

[C0nvert]

@LordShenron Would you be so kind to post a Link to it. Google Search for "WFD Downloader" didn't give me any viable results.
