duplicate of #2129 2129

[JHVIW]

I don't agree with it being a duplicate because that has been fixed in #2138. I have that new version of screenshot_downloader.py in my repository and it worked for 4 video's untill it gave this error.

[JasonLovesDoggo]

Hmmm okay, I won't be free to look into it for a few days but I'll reopen this

[Roostydoo2]

Sorry guys for the late reply this error is to do with reddit blocking the browser due to suspicious activity and can be fixed by changing your ip (via a vpn)

[lexciobotariu]

I found a workaround for the screenshot error, as Roostydoo2 said the browser is blocked with a captcha. What I did was activate the debugging for the browse in screenshot_downloader.py. browser = p.chromium.launch( headless=True Set this to False then increase the waiting time after the script inserted the username and password to 15 seconds, this will give you enough time to complete the captcha manually. Modify the lines page.wait_for_timeout to 15000. Also what I did was I added a timeout of 60 seconds for the page.locator('[data-test-id="post-content"]').screenshot(path=postcontentpath the line would look like this page.locator('[data-test-id="post-content"]').screenshot(path=postcontentpath, timeout=60000)
