SubscribeStar Authentication Error #6416

Open genechoi7 opened 2 weeks ago

genechoi7 commented 2 weeks ago

Hello!

I am trying to download from SubscribeStar with authentication, but I am receiving this error from gallery-dl:

[subscribestar][error] Unable to download data: JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

I have input my username and password, and receive this error immediately after inputting my password.

Try using cookies instead.

(repeating from another similar answer I just made) Subscribestar seems to be a little weird right now. Export the subscribestar cookies however you can into a file, and point gallery-dl to that with the --cookies (FILENAME) option rather than --cookies-from-browser. That's the only way I was able to get it working. I presume they've made a change that hasn't been reflected in a new release build yet.
