Hey, when trying to set up a model from CB I'm getting the error of RATE LIMITED. I haven't figured out why this is the case since this is the only model that I'm recording at the moment, and it's the first time recording someone from CB. Screen Shot 2023-04-16 at 10 28 51 PM

This is interesting, never heard of this before. Apparently it's to protect against malicious actions (e.g. bots). Are you able to watch on the cb website? Can you record with something like streamlink? Try VPN?

I was trying to deploy in an AWS VM so i dont have to have my pc running all the time and its there that it gives the error. When testing locally everything works as expected. I've traced the error back to the getStatus function where the response it gets from CB is "403 forbidden"

AWS, Azure and similar cloud providers are often blocked. This is done because of some crap coming out of this networks and preventing scraping. Small instances are so cheap that they are used for nearly everything.

You could try a cheap dedicated server for around 10 €/month. The IP-Ranges of these host types are not blocked that often. More expensive dedicated servers around 30€+ a month are never blocked. The IP-Ranges are very clean here.

Do you have a suggestion for a cloud provider i could use for this application?
