[BUG] error when trying to add ARL

[I-G-1-1]

Describe the bug

streamrip was working the past week. This week instead when I try to add a new ARL I get the error attached below. I also tried to manually add the arl to the config file and then use "rip url [theulr] --max-quality 2" but it didn't work. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? thanks

Command Used

rip config --deezer

Debug Traceback

rip config --deezer
