Im getting lot of "get metadata failed", is there a way around this?

Looks like you are using release version ! Can you try building from source and see if it's fixed ?

( If you don't know how to build or can;t build for any reason, i can share a build from main branch for you ! )

I was in the same situation as trdahl, using release version and getting "Get metadata failed". I tried building from source and it did get a lot better- about 100 previously failing songs downloaded but there's still 37 left now.

I get these errors when retrying:

[2023-11-10 08:04:17,022 :: runtimedata :: C:\Apps Builds\onthespot\src\onthespot\runtimedata.py -> 49:    handle_exception() :: CRITICAL] -> Uncaught exception

    downloads_status[dl_id]["status_label"].setText("Waiting")
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^^^^^^
KeyError: '5cRyzod3Xe6wbLq9V6G8RT'

Also tried searching for some songs that failed and re-downloading, errors:

[2023-11-10 08:10:14,368 :: runtimedata :: C:\Apps Builds\onthespot\src\onthespot\runtimedata.py -> 49:    handle_exception() :: CRITICAL] -> Uncaught exception

Edit: Clarification + Tried searching and re-downloading
