Hey there, this seems to be a recent change in crunchyroll? I've looked at quite a few different series and seemingly the ja-JP locale has disappeared or is wrongly reported as en-US which creates quite some confusion. If you are sure that the URL you are using is proper for the ja-JP series, you can skip specifying the locale and it should work fine.

Otherwise @bytedream for awareness.

thanks i will try :)

This is indeed the case, now if I don't use -l ja-JP, two audios will be encapsulated, one of which is in Japanese although it is marked in English

😥I'm not sure if this is another crunchyroll change and when I try to log in now it says:
[err] An error occurred: error for endpoint https://beta-api.crunchyroll.com/accounts/v1/me (406): invalid json response: invalid character 'N' after top-level value

Can you try one of the dev releases ? Anything above 3.0.0 should work fine. The cli has changed from using go to using rust and the 2.x releases are quite outdated at this point.

I tried 3.x and it keeps showing the progress bar at 100%, but there is no follow-up action,
and I've been waiting for a long time and still nothing...

  If you tried to supply '-v' as a value rather than a flag, use '-- -v'

Hey so, I can replicate the behavior of the stuck download, it seems to be a sort of hit/miss situation sometimes with something getting stuck.

As for the -v option : you have to specify it in front of everything else like so:
crunchy-cli.exe -v download $(EP_URL) -r best -l en-US -s en-US
crunchy-cli.exe -v archive $(SERIES/SEASON_URL) -r best -l en-US -s en-US

Re-attempting the download of the episode/continuing to download the series from the stuck episode seems to be working ok.

[ltsj]

Thanks! I will keep trying :)

@ltsj are you still able to replicate the stuck downloads ? I just tried this again in the debugger and for some reason it's worked flawlessly for the past 20 minutes. I'm wondering if maybe it was just a small network hiccup on the crunchyroll side ?_?

[ltsj]

@adracea So far, I can't use the 3.x version to download,it will always be stuck at 100% progress

Seems like it might be hitting on some bandwidth based rate limiting from crunchyroll, I am now able to replicate when using -r best quality . It might be related to some fixes we applied between dev2 and dev3 releases. Could you give a shot to :
https://github.com/crunchy-labs/crunchy-cli/releases/tag/v3.0.0-dev.2 ?

v3.0.0-dev.2 can be downloaded normally

@ltsj I would also recommend upgrading the ffmpeg binary to one of the newer releases. I've had various issues stemming from it especially on Windows.

This should be fixed in v3.0.0-dev.5. This adds a workaround for Crunchyrolls broke and crappy api results 🙃.

For stable versions (v2.3.6 and lower) no fix are released. You have to use the dev version in order to get the fix.
