We are still experiencing DRM issues with some of the StreamFab download modules. If you can only download videos at lower resolutions than you could before January 25th 2024, please be patient as the developers are still working on fixing the issues.
Other symptoms that you are dealing with a DRM problem could be "Failure to access video" errors or endless analysis.
Please refrain from posting about these specific errors as we are of course well aware and working on them. Feel free to post an issue you think might not be related to the DRM problem but bear in mind that they will be treated with a very low priority until the DRM issues are resolved.
The following modules should be fully back to normal (state before January 25th 2024):
AbemaTVApple TV+CrunchyrollDisney+HuluITVX
JoynLeminoNHK+OnlyFansParamount+
RTL+ShahidTubiU-Next
These modules are back to normal for content added prior to January 25th 2024 and lower resolutions for newer content:
AmazonMax
* Netflix content added after January 25th 2024 cannot be downloaded at all. It is back to normal for everything else.
Regarding Peacock , the content that cannot be downloaded is anything posted after February 22nd 2024. Anything Prior can still be downloaded as usual.
We thank you for your understanding.

Download issue with V6.1.5.3 S.W.A.T. S05 E11, 13 and 15
HI,
I have some download issues on Netflix during the download of S.W.A.T Season 5. Three Episodes are not downloading. Episode 11, 13 and 15. I attached the Logfile for Episode 11. I tryed it several times but it don't work.
Thanks for help!
Yeah those browserinfo lines seem to be out of place but strangely enough, i have the same in my log files.
In any case, i have figured out the problem. I was able to download the episodes he couldn't and then i tried to get it to fail and was also successful at that
Chrswbr1: The problem stems from the fact that, for some reason or other, those episodes do not have an H264 High Profile. Your settings are set to download H264 High and since you scanned an episode that did have an H264 High profile, it set the whole queue to be downloaded with that profile. Once it gets to those episodes, it just fails. Maybe StreamFab can add some error handling for that scenario.
It worked for me right away because i have my settings set to download in H265 HDR10 and StreamFab does have extensive error handling for that scenario. It tries all profiles lower than the one selected until it finds one that works. I suspect that every Netflix video always had both H264 High and Main profiles so error handling wasn't needed when you have the settings on H264.
Your workaround would be to change your settings to download with the H264 Main profile.
Interestingly enough, i saw that episodes 13 and 15 are available in H265 SDR. That is the first non-Netflix show i have seen to have H265. I don't know if it is because there was a bug in previous StreamFab versions where it didn't accurately check for H265 SDR if there was no HDR10 version or if this is a change implemented by Netflix. Either way, i guess i have some poking around to do and i can report back.
Jack, I'm confused on this one. Could you take a look at the log?

That's pretty obvious but he's also getting Netflix 201 errors which means his device needs to be refreshed and sometimes the Netflix connection will close. I'm not seeing any closing but it is acting like 6.1.5.2 instead of the 6.1.5.3 he is running.
And the strangest thing to me are these lines --

He's using a User Agent for Microsoft Edge instead of the Android User Agent used in 6.1.5.3. But he's running 6.1.5.3.
Is StreamFab using Android User Agent with European Netflix? Or just in North America?
The other thought I had was that maybe he did a online update to 6.1.5.3 and it didn't wipe out all the data from 6.1.5.2.
I don't subscribe to Netflix at the moment and so I can't do any testing on my own. I was hoping that the log told the whole story but I'm more confused now than when I started.

Great detective work, Jack! At one point I was suspecting his Altmos setting but then I realized that it was being properly downgraded to lesser audio types by StreamFab. I never thought it was the H264 profiles setting.
