Topic: Issues with SVPTube and Crunchyroll

Hello,

After few weeks of perfect usage, I'm getting issues again with SVPTube and Crunchyroll.

This time, URL is passed OK to SVPTube, but if I choose "Playback", I got no error from SVPTube, but MPV doesn't launch and I got this on SVP logs:

20:52:01.253 : VideoPlayer: mpv [mpv.exe] connected, waiting for the video info...
20:52:01.762 : VideoPlayer: mpv 0.35.0-dirty /via 'mpvpipe'
20:52:02.942 : VideoPlayer: mpv [mpv.exe] connected, waiting for the video info...
20:52:03.450 : VideoPlayer: mpv 0.35.0-dirty /via 'mpvpipe'
20:52:04.629 : VideoPlayer: mpv [mpv.exe] connected, waiting for the video info...

Strangely enough, I can download the file with no issue (same exact video):

20:52:20.327 : VideoPlayer: mpv 0.35.0-dirty /via 'mpvpipe'
20:52:34.971 : Tube: video format id adaptive_hls-8102 selected
20:52:45.311 : Tube: download started, 0 left in queue
20:55:09.176 : Tube: download finished

If I copy URL and drop it on opened MPV window, video plays fine, but SVP doesn't kick in:

20:48:46.944 : VideoPlayer: mpv [mpv.exe] connected, waiting for the video info...
20:49:16.450 : VideoPlayer: mpv 0.35.0-dirty /via 'mpvpipe'
20:49:21.442 [W]: VideoPlayer: media file doesn't look like video, ignoring...

And the error from MPV.log:

[   0.379][d][ffmpeg/demuxer] hls: HLS request for url 'https://prod.gccrunchyroll.com/evs3/03a … D77RcGPJCQ', offset 0, playlist 0
[   0.379][v][ffmpeg/demuxer] hls: Opening 'https://prod.gccrunchyroll.com/evs3/03a … D77RcGPJCQ' for reading

[   0.485][e][ffmpeg/demuxer] hls: Unable to open key file https://prod.gccrunchyroll.com/evs3/03a … D77RcGPJCQ

Could it a youtube-dl issue?

If I drop the URL in the MPV window, and the video starts playing, why SVP thinks it's not a video?

20:49:21.442 [W]: VideoPlayer: media file doesn't look like video, ignoring...

Thanks.

Re: Issues with SVPTube and Crunchyroll

Now it's not working at all, I'm always getting this message:

21:19:22.235 [W]: DownloadError('ERROR: [crunchyroll] GEVUZE024: This video is for premium members only.')

I have settled my Auth cookie several times, cleared caches in browsers, etc.

Is there any youtube-dl issue reported?

Re: Issues with SVPTube and Crunchyroll

Yes, I've reported an issue with youtube-dl about twenty hours ago.

And also I'm sure that I wasn't the only one. It's been mentioned in the Russian subforum as well.

They are probably aware of the problem and currently working on the solution.

Just wanted to answer your question so you didn't feel like being left in a vacuum ;)

this's very kind, but this question is regarding Crunchroll, not Youtube wink

Re: Issues with SVPTube and Crunchyroll

Thank you very much both of you, It's really appreciated.

But, as Chainik has correctly stated, it's an issue regarding youtube-dl cookie auth with an specific website, Crunchyroll.

I'll check yt-dl forums to look for more info.

Thanks.

Re: Issues with SVPTube and Crunchyroll

Hope this will fix the issue:

[extractor/crunchyroll] Fix incorrect premium-only error by Grub4K

Will wait to upgrade from SVP, last time I tried to upgrade manually it was kinda messy, because changes are not only in crunchyroll extractor, but also in several others .py files.

Re: Issues with SVPTube and Crunchyroll

Yes, I my bad, I noticed it this morning.

After upgrade, no more "Premium-only" error, but my situation is as the start of the thread: most of Crunchyroll videos not playing from SVP, 404 errors in mpv.log.

Strange thing is now, if I drop the URL to mpv player, video it's properly showed. I'll keep trying to make SVP work againg, it's much more comfortable than URL dropping.

Thank you.
