No new media from location

Open Username2022a opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

I keep getting "No new media from location" whenever I add a new location. When I grab the coordinates from SnapMap the location is full of snaps, but as soon as I scrape them in Snapchat-map-scraper I just keep getting "No new media from location".

Does it find anything if you add the argument --randomize to the command? e.g.

python3 story_downloader.py scrape --randomize

The script uses a specific zoom value, which might differ from the zoom level you see in your SnapMap. Randomize will pick a random spot within ~1 mile of the target which may be nearer to snaps. You could also let it repeat with a small wait time and check after a few minutes to see if any of the random spots had snaps.

python3 story_downloader.py scrape --randomize --repeat --sleep 2

I haven't tested it recently. It worked after Snap removed their public map but if it's not working for you, they may have removed or changed the server.

Just tested it, it's still working for me. It's a lot slower downloading videos than I remember, but if you keep waiting it will finish.
