Can no longer list or play videos #51

Closed TK5000 closed 1 year ago

TK5000 commented 1 year ago

Regardless if I use my login credentials, I can no longer list or play videos. Trending, Popular, etc are all empty.

Error: "Login failed, Unable to login to Bitchute with the details provided".

I've logged out, logged back in, and tried without a login. Also uninstalled and reinstalled and found no solution. I've been using this addon for over a year and it's been running perfectly until now.

I'm running Kodi 19 Matrix and haven't upgraded anything (that I know of) which would break the addon.

That's odd. My subscriptions are all still listed correctly....

I had an old Raspberry Pi 3 laying around, so I tried a clean build.

LibreELEC 11.0 Kodi 20.1 Linux Kernel 6.1.x

The only thing I did was enable SSH and install the Bitchute addon. I have the same issue.

Opening a video via Bitchute ID works, so something may have changed in the webpages that broke the scraper.

I tried an older build and had the same issue.

old Version (2023.01) LibreELEC 10.0 Kodi 19.5 Linux Kernel 5.10.x

I was able to solve the issue by using a new build, setting the user/pass, then entering the "subscriptions" page to force a login. After that, other pages like popular and trending work again. No pages will work unless you force a login.
