Problems and inconsistencies downloading Pornhub playlists (favorites) #11444

Post concrete examples. |

@dstftw do you want the user and password too? I described the issue and provided the log, you don't need anything else in order to reproduce it on your end. |
|
You must provide concrete example URLs that reproduce the behavior you consider incorrect. |
|
@dstftw any favorites playlist url will do. |
|
I'm not going to find example URLs myself and fortune tell what's not consistent. Providing complete report is your responsibility. |
|
Lol, it's your script dude, if you don't want to fix it suit yourself. |
|
@bestwaytodesign You didn't provide a link that is broken so nobody is able to fix it. "http://www.pornhub.com/users/PORNHUB_USER/videos/favorites?o=oldest&page=1" is not enough as things may be different for different users. It's a waste of time if we fix it for another user account but the result does not fit your need. |
|
@yan12125 it's very simple: try to reproduce it for another account and if you can't just let it be then. If you can reproduce it then fix it and it will probably fix it for all other accounts too. You guys chose the third option of just letting it be and that's fine by me: it's your script so if you're happy leaving it alone then I'm happy too. |
|
Sorry, I guess I can't fix it. |
|
@yan12125 If you don't want to do something about it just don't but please spare the subterfuges: the url I put in my log was obviously from the 'favorites' playlist. |
|
Well, basically public videos are the same as favorite videos. Tried this user several times and always get 13 videos. |
|
@yan12125 Using the same command you used and on another installation of youtube-dl (on another pc, and apparently more uptodate script) I get the same: That's weird, is there a way to get a more verbose output? Looking at the video title it doesn't seem like it has any weird characters in the name or anything. It could be that the site is timing me out too. Sometimes it starts to download the videos and then it errors out due to a timeout. You don't seem to suffer from that though although you only downloaded the playlist metadata, it doesn't seem you downloaded any of the videos per se. |

@yan12125 that only printed mostly gibberish, wasn't exactly what I was after. Oh well |

Trying to download a full playlist from pornhub using youtube-dl is not consistent and errors out sometimes (see log). The "pages" it tries to download (messages [PornHubUserVideos] PORNHUB_USER: Downloading page #) isn't consistent either, sometimes it's 11 others like 40. Something is odd here.
