Can't download episode in dub

[FilipLac]

Metadata Version: 4.7.3 OS: Ubuntu-22.04 (Using WSL 2.0) Shell: bash 5.1.16 Anime: Mushoku Tensei Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2 Episode 12

Describe the bug Downloading is broken. When I select this episode, I get error (posted bellow in screenshot) right after 1-2 seconds. Downloading episode 12 without dub works fine, but I would like English dub. Also I can't access the URL that it is trying to pull from this episode (error 403 forbidden)

Steps To Reproduce

1. Run ani-cli -d --dub -q best Mushoku Tensei
2. Choose 4 (Mushoku Tensei: Isekai Ittara Honki Dasu Part 2 (12 episodes))
3. Choose episode 12

Expected behavior It should download Episode 12 of season 1 part 2, with English dub.

Additional context

And also in ''How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom Part 2'' (which is named Season 2 for some reason in script). Almost every episode downloads without 3 episodes (ep 10, 12, 13).

It is also happening with the same error. Network is working fine and downloading other episodes work.

Final Edit: It seems to be a curl or allanime bug, I tried to download the same anime and episode in different quality and it worked.. you can try to download in an inferior quality, which might infact work for you.

also -q best is not necessary as ani-cli downloads the episode in best quality by default

@FilipLac it seems that the auto selected mp4 links are dead for some reason. in this case u can try other qualities like m3u8 and Mp4 . You can check the specific qualities available for a given episode by using ANI_CLI_PLAYER=debug ani-cli <anime> We can't feasibly check every link for their validity every time so some will need to be manually checked.

We need to remove wixmp provider

Ok, thank you for response, what would be then best way to download them ? Should I use -q m3u8, or is there another witch for this that I could use ?

when did we implement m3u8 and mp4 as -q parameters?

I tried -q Mp4 and it also failed, because it tried to use the forbidden links, but it appears that m3u8 works

It's not explicitely implemented but a consequence of how we handle quality selection in v4:

select_quality() {
    case "$1" in
        best) result=$(printf "%s" "$links" | head -n1) ;;
        worst) result=$(printf "%s" "$links" | grep -E '^[0-9]{3,4}' | tail -n1) ;;
        *) result=$(printf "%s" "$links" | grep -m 1 "$1") ;;
    esac
    [ -z "$result" ] && printf "Specified quality not found, defaulting to best\n" 1>&2 && result=$(printf "%s" "$links" | head -n1)
    printf "%s" "$result" | cut -d'>' -f2
}
