Hi,

I have an issue with the download feature of jav-it.
I'm able to download most movies without issues but some IDs won't work.

Here's the command I'm using to download with the program output :

$ ./jav-it_v1.5.0_mac/jav-it download -c c.txt -i 78cao034 -o

2021/05/20 11:49:28 [INFO] Now scanning for streams with video ID '78cao034'...
2021/05/20 11:49:28 [FAIL] The provided video ID '78cao034' did not return any streams. Please verify if the ID is valid.

The ID I'm using (78cao34) is the cid parameter of the web player URL / content id on the movie page which works fine with other movies.

I'm using the latest version (1.5.0) on macOS, I also tried it on windows and the result is the same.

Hi there,

Maybe this is a dumb question, but do you have accesss to the video in question? In addition, maybe try "78cao00034" where you pad in extra zeros?

Adding two extra zeros worked, the files are now downloading correctly

Thank you for your help :)

Is there any way to know which ids will require an extra zero ?
The streaming page URL ends with /player?cid=78cao034 but the download only works with this exact id : 78cao00034

If you look at the Content ID, you can see they usually pad numbers with 00 zeroes to make the number portion a length of 5 places. But this isn't a standard and they sometimes do this internally or sometimes not. It only happens on a small number of titles I think, so hopefully it isn't much of an issue.
