Topic: Errors Trying to use SVPTube with Adult Swim

Hey now,

I'm learning how to set up web authentication for SVPTube on various sites, and thought I'd start with adult swim. While it offers some content for free, one needs a TV provider for everything. First I tried playing a free video, which errored out:

DownloadError(\ERROR: [AdultSwim] Unable to download JSON metadata: <urlopen error [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed> (caused by URLError(gaierror(11001, 'getaddrinfo failed')))\)
Tube: [AdultSwim] _6oDiwwbSUiwXn4oZ8Y1sw: No video formats found!; please report this issue on  https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues?q= , filling out the appropriate issue template. Confirm you are on the latest version using  yt-dlp -U
DownloadError('ERROR: [AdultSwim] _6oDiwwbSUiwXn4oZ8Y1sw: No video formats found!; please report this issue on  https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues?q= , filling out the appropriate issue template. Confirm you are on the latest version using  yt-dlp -U')

Then, I tried setting the Adobe Pass MSO to my TV provider, typing those credentials in the username/pass, setting a cookies.txt (with this cookie extractor: https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/add … kcfcmceeip) and setting a user agent. This time, it threw a different error (with or without cookies/useragent). Here's the events log for that:

Tube: [AdultSwim] Unable to download JSON metadata: <urlopen error [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed> (caused by URLError(gaierror(11001, 'getaddrinfo failed')))
DownloadError(\ERROR: [AdultSwim] Unable to download JSON metadata: <urlopen error [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed> (caused by URLError(gaierror(11001, 'getaddrinfo failed')))\)

I thought I'd ask here before the YouTube-dl communities as a cursory look into the topic provided such great answers like  "what's SVP?"

Re: Errors Trying to use SVPTube with Adult Swim

does it work with plain yt-dlp.exe ?
if no then there's nothing we could do, they (yt-dlp) should fix it

Re: Errors Trying to use SVPTube with Adult Swim

Ah I found the error -- it was an unrelated issue with my DNS resolving being a little slow. I haven't retested with the MSOs, but I'll just make another thread if I've more problems smile
