error when ripping playlist

[samithaj]

I get this error when ripping some playlists (about 30 songs) - other playlist get ripped ok
I copied the playlist to a text file and removed local files but the issue is same
tried 2.10.7 but same error

edit: when i extracted URI's to a txt file and gave it, same error , so somehow URI's are bugged??
playlist: spotify:user:1242336789:playlist:2NmS6p9TTWqXGUykZ2QZAH

hey you can chain single download commands with "&&"
sudo spotify-ripper -l spotify:track:57JNg9mhfUrnwVPCVRXAGD && sudo spotify-ripper -l spotify:track:57JNg9mhfUrnwVPCVRXAGD ..............
Just select all a playlist and copy paste to text editor and use find and replace to make the command list
also you may need to increase sudo password remember timeout if you want download long playlist

Chain download for single file and album works for me. Never could get playlist download working yet.
Is there a workaround ?

[hbashton]

Can someone show me the link to a later source, or not?

Personally I always have playlist download working; I don't know what the issue could be with others

@hbashton I assume you;re running the latest version from this repo? Also, what version of python do you run yours with? It looks like both 3.4 and 2.7 have this error so I doubt it's python related, but who knows.

[DevMiKeCL]

there is a trouble about playlist parsing

but... i don't know how fix it in the code

sorry my english

may be this link help

http://tootallnate.github.io/spotify-uri/

https://developer.spotify.com/web-api/get-playlists-tracks/

[SolidEva]

I'm working on a hack to use the web api to empty the playlist after it is ripped and to pulled the tracks to create track objects without needing to load the playlist. The removal I've got working and the track pulling I'll have working tonight. It seems as this api gets older eventually we could lose the play functionality all together. Once that happens this project will be dead as the web api doesn't have a way to listen to full songs (30 second preview only). Spotify has been silent on this for years spotify/web-api#57

@hbashton if you have this working, could you share what version of this package you are using as well as the version of python and pyspotify? The size of your playlist and if you're comfortable, the playlist link or it's contents would be helpful in tracking down this bug since many users are unable to get this to work.

[deerhunter91]

All newly created playlists no longer work for me. I get timeout errors. Even if they have only one song in them.

Some old playlists still work.

It seems like Spotify has made, or are making, changes to how playlists are loaded

mopidy-spotify users reported this issue, then it appeared to just go away and it was concluded that Spotify servers were having problems ...

mopidy/mopidy-spotify#127

But it also seems that the API is being changed

mopidy/mopidy-spotify#130

Also see these issues ...

#10

mopidy/mopidy-spotify#133

[SolidEva]

I've posted a webAPI based fix for the playlist issue as well as the remove from playlist issue. Since my branch is based on version 2.10.5 of jrnewels spotify-ripper it would be a great amount of time and effort to merge these two forks. Feel free to merge my changes over @hbashton if you'd like

@SolidHal thank you.

[deerhunter91]

@SolidHal you have not enabled Issues in your fork, so I can't submit an issue, but running your fork (after installing spotipy). I get this error:

Whoops, forgot to remove that test environment variable. It's all fixed now and issues are enabled @deerhunter91
