Large Soundcloud Playlist Fail

[NickWinston123]

I was doing youtube-dl https://soundcloud.com/yumecollective/likes with --verbose flag to get the error log and it kept giving me this error and I have updated my youtube-dl but still nothing works any help would be appreciated.

no one knows anything..?

Post the full --verbose output as is without dropping anything from it.

[dstftw]

Most likely there is a connectivity issue between you and soundcloud caused by network fault, soundcloud throttling or something else. You may want to use -i to ignore errors and/or specify some reasonable --sleep-interval SECONDS to prevent potential throttling by soundcloud.

Man I guess its just far to many songs to be downloaded, any thing I do continues to give the same error

thanks anyways sorry for the double post forgot about this one

[NickWinston123]

@dstftw Actually this doesn't seem to be because of the time limit, it just seems as if youtube-dl can't download likes? why is this?

[dstftw]

Downloading this playlist does not give me any Operation timed out errors but some 403 errors. However songs caused 403 when downloading as playlist end up being downloaded correctly individually. This may probably due to download links expiry (download links are resolved first and then downloaded one by one). However, in this case it's very strange that some links expire and some don't. I've deferred download link resolve till actual download time in 1ae72fb and this seems fixed 403's for me.

@dstftw Thanks, but wouldn't I need to update to get the working update?
Asking because it seems my thing is up to date still:

youtube-dl is up-to-date (2015.05.10)

[dstftw]

You'll need to wait for the next release or use sources from repo.

[NickWinston123]

@dstftw Like reinstalling with the get zip file?

[dstftw]

Just unpack and run python -m youtube_dl URL.

[NickWinston123]

thanks

@dstftw Hey, one more question does youtube-dl fully support band camp? Bandcamp-dl seems to no longer work due to python /ply/lex.py error.

[dstftw]

Don't know what you mean by 'fully'. Have a try.

[NickWinston123]

@dstftw Well the last time I used it it seemed to be very slow and I think I got an error so I didn't know if it was in development or considered fully working. Ill try again
