5 days ago Quick note, to resolve the issue with NumPy, I run pip install --break-system-packages opencv-python (I know this is aa poor practice, my Python structure on my Mac is in an awful state and I do not know ho to fix it). This allows me to successfully execute the command which results in the following output:
Exporting snapchat memories: 0media [00:00, ?media/s]

5 days ago I managed to get Pillow 10.3.0 installed in a virtual environment and this is the output that I receive:

Issue Overview
Hey @jonwomack, thanks for open sourcing your work! I'm eager to see how this could help me in my export process, however, I'm running into some issues with it. I've followed your README as closely as I can but I'm not quite sure if I'm doing this correctly.
When running the command
python snapchat_export.py ./snapchat-downloads, Terminal responds withExporting snapchat memories: 0media [00:00, ?media/s].I've noted that when downloading memories from Snapchat, they've changed the folder structure and you need to take separate steps to download
memories_history.json. I have this file but it is not part of the folders that came with this export.Another note, I am using Python 13.3, I updated
requirements.txtto includePillowat11rather than10.3as I cannot get pip to install Pillow 10.3. I can elaborate on this if needed, traceback follows if interested:Details for issues with Pillow==10.3.0

In other instances, I run into an issue when running
python snapchat_export.py ./snapchat-downloads. I've made it past this point a few different times but it's something I figured I'd mention:Details for issue with NumPy
`python3 snapchat_export.py ./snapchat-downloads ` ``` A module that was compiled using NumPy 1.x cannot be run in NumPy 2.1.3 as it may crash. To support both 1.x and 2.x versions of NumPy, modules must be compiled with NumPy 2.0. Some module may need to rebuild instead e.g. with 'pybind11>=2.12'. If you are a user of the module, the easiest solution will be to downgrade to 'numpy<2' or try to upgrade the affected module. We expect that some modules will need time to support NumPy 2.

Thank you for your help and insight, I appreciate it!
Folder Structure
I believe my folder structure follows yours correctly, it follows and has some differences as I cloned the repo:
