Crash While downloading Crunchyroll Subtitles #9030
Comments

Just going to note the current master has this fixed. (33f3040) |

Oh, OK, thank you. Do I have to wait for the next release or can I compile it now? (I'm new to github and am not sure whether just compiling what's here will work, it's probably not recommended even if it would technically work) |

This issue is already fixed and fix will be incorporated in the next version of youtube-dl. |
Make sure you are using the latest version: run
youtube-dl --versionand ensure your version is 2016.03.27. If it's not read this FAQ entry and update. Issues with outdated version will be rejected.Before submitting an issue make sure you have:

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information
While attempting to download a video form crunchyroll and list the available subtitles with
--list-subs; youtube-dl crashes. The crash also occours with the same output when attempting to skip the--list-subscommand and use the know valid--sub-langofenUS.The following is the
2016.03.27version unsuccessful '--list-subs' output:The Download does work without attempting to download subtitles though.
The following is the
2016.03.27version successful video only output:An interesting point to note though is that on version
2015.06.04.1as available from the ubuntu 15.10 repository the subtitles list correctly and download. The2016.03.27version as mentioned previously does not. The2016.03.27version also clearly handles the naming of cruncyroll videos differently as the output video file is namedGATE Episode 23 – Paradrop-692655.flvwhereas the2015.06.04.1version names the same videoCrunchyroll-692655.flv.The following is the
2015.06.04.1version successful output:I chose this specific video for the issue as it does not require a login to view (please note that dues to the nature of the site it may be unavailable in certain locations but there's nothing I can do about that).
My thoughts are that somewhere in the code the
2016.03.27version of youtube-dl attempts to handle the subtitle urls differently than the2015.06.04.1version, at which point it encounters an error and crashes.You should be able to recreate the circumstances with the information from the verbose output of the commands so I'm not sure what else I could offer. though I'd be more than happy to try and supply any additional information I can.
