What bugs do you want to see fixed first?

[jpp72]

It doesn't works since SF analyze and show to you the bitrate for the first episode and stop.
I just tested and even if i choose to download the second episode, SF show to me the bitrate for the first one.

You can't know.

• To scan a show, click the inverted caret to bring up the list of episodes.

• It will scan episode 1

• Click cancel and click on Episode 2

StreamFab will now scan episode 2.



This also works for Hulu and i hope they do the same for Amazon and all other modules.

Mate, i can't spend many hours checking which episode has a better bitrate. Try to do with a tvshow with many seasons and episodes.
An automatic solution would be better in this case.

I gave you a workaround in the meantime.

I really doubt that episodes from the same season have huge bitrate differences on different profiles so if Season 2, Episode 1 has a better bitrate (suggestive) on Main than High, it's a safe bet that the rest of that season is also better on the Main profile. Plus, it will still only show you all the bitrates for that particular episode so you will still have to do lotsa clicks if you think Episode 1 is better in Main and episode 2 is better in Hight

I had already suggested they list all bitrates and either have a small icon next to each bitrate to indicate the profile or color code them. Another would be having a filter to only show a certain profile like they do for Amazon.

But it's a good idea and a great enhancement so it will never happen

As for the first bug (creation of subfolders) the simple workaround is to start the template with '..\..\', which will go 'up' two directories (Sxx and then showname). The default ones aren't even created then. Confirmed working with Netflix, Amazon and SkyShowtime so far.

I already do that but didn't really want to advertise is in fear that it would fall to the wayside. It also seems like it thinks the file path is too long because of this, when it isn't. I get the pop-up more often when i do that

it is just 6 characters... well then, the 'support for long paths' should really be the feature we want.

Doesn't matter that it's 6 characters. My download path is long, my filenames are long and some titles are long.

Try downloading this episode of IMPACT X Nightline from Hulu with a configuration like this and you can see for yourself:

Download Folder:

Z:\Stream Downloaders\StreamFab

TV Shows Output Template:

..\..\TV Shows\{show.name}\Season {season.num}\{show.name} - {season.num}x{episode.num} - {episode.name} - {video.codec} {resolution} WEB-DL-StreamFab {module}

This is what happens:



If i click Cancel, the remux begins and i end up with the full name of the file:


Which means those 6 extra characters make StreamFab think the path/file combo is too long when it is NOT. All it does is mess up my queue as it is paused until i do something.

If i tell StreamFab to automatically rename, i end up with a file like this:



So until they fix BOTH the auto-rename and the output template, i cannot have a fully automated queue.

It's extra annoying cause i queued 100 things on Netflix, clicked start, came back 3 hours later and only one episode had been downloaded. It was waiting for me to rename a file for the TV Show Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult. There are 3 episodes so i watch the queue and click cancel after each episode. I go about my day and come back a few hours later and i see that the show Eric is fully downloaded but now it's asking me to rename Ashley Madison: Sex, Lies & Scandal

So like i said, without the ..\..\, it would ask me to rename because it really was too long. If i clicked cancel, it would just pop-up again and again and not Remux. With the ..\..\, it warns me, i click cancel, it continues. It will continue to pop-up on things that are TRULY too long but that's because it gets an error from windows. The initial pop-up is StreamFab anticipating the windows error.

[ms-dfav]

It is still StreamFab's fault, because the real path limit in windows is above 32000 characters - that's why I suggested that SF should support this, so that 6 characters more or less would not matter. Other than that, I feel your pain

[Sebastian001]

It's fixed in the version 6183, named as "video_name_1" if the video already exists.

For Amazon Prime Germany it does not work!

Also, I have another idea for a workaround, provided you have NTFS filesystem underneath: try creating a one-letter-long junction (via mklink) like that:

Z:\j -> Z:\Stream Downloaders\StreamFab

and then point StreamFab to that junction instead. The paths should always be that much shorter then but the end result would be the same.

Haven't tried this myself yet, as my TV shows usually have shorter names

Edit: it may be tempting to use another drive for the junction (so that you won't be bothered by the existence of it) but this may throw off another StreamFab feature: monitoring the free space - so I would advice against it.

Hi,

Please send me the log files, and what's renamed for you now?

There's a stupid bug from last year about Netflix and login.

I use Streamfab on my dedicated server from Hetzner and i can't login at all with the original ip.
I have to use a vpn and then works (maybe). If i don't, i get: login info not correct ecc ecc.

Netflix works good with the original one since i use VT but got damn, is pretty annoying.
Same for download: always by vpn otherwise it doesn't works even if the tvshow or movie is available in the country (German).


Second "bug" always from Netflix:
please add a kind of analyzing from both profile (main and high) before to download and keep with the highest bitrate.

Sometime high profile has a better bitrate than main and viceversa.
At the moment i have to download twice and check which one is better and takes time.

Thanks

Because in China, it is necessary to use VPN to access Netflix, Disney, Amazon, YouTube, and Max, otherwise these websites cannot be accessed
