Newgrounds gallery downloader no longer working

Open micnorian14 opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Hydrus 487 Latest Newgrounds art downloader (2020.07.18) Expected: search returns results, file search combs files Result: Searches result in "ignored" status with note "The parser found nothing in the document!"

At some point recently the NG art downloader got fragged. In 20 minutes of me diddling with it, I've come to the conclusion that I have no idea how the NG website works.

Ever since the update with the new player, the old method of looking in the HTML source for the "ungrounded" URL no longer works as when the page first loads.

It's replaced with a hidden video element with a base64 encoded source until the play button on the video is clicked image

After the button is clicked, it is replaced with a proper "ungrounded" source URL. image

I'm not sure if there's a way to simulate this in the parser. Haven't looked into what's wrong with the normal art parser.

Is this also the same cause for why art downloads won't work? I can't even get images with the downloader.

Someone replied to you on the discord with the updated downloader.
