Category download not working. Weird behavior.

[noobcoder2196]

So at first I had some issues logging in with email and password because google kept asking me for reCAPTCHA so I tried logging in with facebook and it worked. Now, I tried downloading classes from the graphic design category and this happened:

It first repeatedly kept making a download list of one single course from that category (that too incomplete, with only 4 videos.) and then finally that same course with the right number of videos. The error log is included below for your ease:

Any idea what's going on here and a possible fix? Also if it's possible to not terminate the login session each time the program returns an error, that'd be great. It's very tedious to keep logging in back again every time something goes wrong :(

I have a problem with google captcha that still can not handle, the same does not appear to be resolved. It only works using facebook.

Repeated download streams are not bugs. To animate myself on the console I need to repeat a piece of information with new values.

The files of videos are listing in sequence, after resolved by the crawler in a moment all the videos appeared in order.

The animation on the console works something like this:

--------------------------
Video 1 - 0%
--------------------------
Video 1 - 1%
--------------------------

It may be happening resize from the console. So not following the flow of animation. But it's working.

Yes it would be easy to resolve keeping the session, and just save the cookie on file and use it again, updating.

Wait for the video to download and check the folder. And let me know if everything went well. I just tested linux so I do not know how it will work on windows.

By the video code you got something to download?

I think you need to remove the semi-colon from the file or folder name. It messes up with window's naming conventions. My advice is to ditch every space and semicolon for a dash. That way, it'll keep windows and linux name conventions satisfied.

Okay, so I tried running on linux lite (using vmware) and it ran perfectly...I chose the graphic design category and it was downloading smoothely but towards the end some videos were left incomplete and weren't being completed (no % was being added in the downloader) I wonder what caused this? Could it be the login becoming expired or something else?

[tharyckgusmao]

Hmm ... I use an arch linux environment, everything is very strange on windows for me.

I performed about 1TB of download and did not get any problems.

I think it's not a session problem, because you continue to use the means of the application. It may be that they updated the platform by preventing sequential access to the videos. I need to try downloading the videos in question to review. Please inform me by which category the problem occurred, you can also check if the json file was created for the video that gave problem.

videofolder -> tmp -> videoname .json

[noobcoder2196]

Category was graphic design and yes, the json file was created. A total of 3-4 videos were left hanging without any progress.
