Devine - Modular Movie, TV, and Music Archival Software

[Tom Saurus]

Thanks to Tom Saurus for helping me solve a problem with Channel 4/ALL4. I wasn't aware of the devine cache, and I've now deleted the ALL4 devine cache entry. Magically, ALL4 now works again!

Thank you it is always nice to know something I have posted is of use to someone. Another tip I am finding that if the video part of a file has been downloaded by Devine and the download has failed when the audio is being downloaded that the video is in the temp folder. So I can then just go back and write a new command to just get the audio, subtitles and chapters for that file. I can take Clever FFmpeg GUI and mux the two files together and I have the complete file. The audio file is downloaded in a folder in your downloads folder.

Also I want to say once again check your temp folder in Devine as GBs of files can build up in there and if you don't have a large hard drive that can be important. If the files have already been downloaded and are not needed just delete the contents of temp to save hard drive space. Every once in a while you can do the same with your log files.

Cue that Ric Flair Entrance Music from 2001: A Space Odyssey again.

I have a question I have DSL but last week some guys were inspecting the hydro poles that are on our property and they told me that Fiber Optic Internet was coming at some point. So my question is when it comes to Devine now if it is working at the fastest download speed I can get which seems to be 1 mbps if I get lets say 150 mega bits per second which translates to about 18.75 mega bytes per second would Devine on some downloads get that kind of download speed. Though in the end it might be of much use as I did read that the ISP for example once you have used 350 GB of usage can throttle your speed to 512 kbps or I have conversely read 60 percent of your download speed which would be much better. Unlimited Bandwidth is built into the Fibe packages with my current ISP. But if there is a data cap built in where throttling starts once you reach it; that makes one really think.

It'll depend on the service and routing/peering, but I can max out my gigabit connection using Devine and certain services. Devine will not be the bottleneck in any case.

Thank you this is encouraging.

hey, how do i fix this error

Fix? I don't know. But I have the exact same error with Python 3.13.3 and found a work-around is to use python 3.12.10. Assume one of the python updates is screwed.

https://chatgpt.com/share/68318a7b-96e8-800e-a25a-c8b3cce74c97 explains creating a venv with specific python version.

i downloaded 3.12.10 and followed the directions but it didnt do the job for me.

[iamghost]

what is video url?

i downloaded 3.12.10 and followed the directions but it didnt do the job for me.

OK. I see this error with python 3.13.3

Error: Invalid value for '--sub-format': 'SRT' is not one of 'subrip', 'substationalpha', 'substationalphav4', 'timedtextmarkuplang', 'webvtt', 'fttml', 'fvtt'.

And a correction for me is to replace sub_format: srt with sub_format: subrip in devine.yaml.

Have you tried to get this show without the subtitles by just asking Devine to get -V -A -C which would just get the video, audio and chapters?

i tried that but it still gives me the same error.

[Tom Saurus]

iamghost is pretty knowledgeable and he has asked for the url. Perhaps he can give you the guidance to help you get past this stumbling block.

[iamkennethy_]

what is video url?

tried downloading this:

devine dl -w S01E01 TUBI https://tubitv.com/series/300000686/amen

[Tom Saurus]

what is video url?

tried downloading this:

devine dl -w S01E01 TUBI https://tubitv.com/series/300000686/amen

For myself when I use my VPN for the U.S. I can play the video on the TUBI TV website. However when I enter a Devine command line I get:

Service has no Geofence
Authenticated with Service
No titles returned, nothing to download...

I remember though some months back I did get this archived. This has happened with other videos at TUBI as well. I have also run across where some movies are fine to download and others say this is only available in the United States. You might be able to get these episodes one at a time with Widevine Proxy 2 as that usually works for me when I have trouble with Devine. I will leave this with those who have more knowledge than I do. There are some people who are quite adept at diagnosing and providing guidance.

New service in the works ... for grey and wrinklies everywhere (if they have VPN)

Thank you for letting us know. Thank you also for this new Devine Service. I hope someone does a Plex service as they have some gems. Though one can get them with Widevine Proxy 2.

[A_n_g_e_l_a]

As promised TPTV is now live as a devine service. The site is TPTV - https://tptvencore.co.uk/ and hosts an eclectic mix of media from the 30's to late 90's. It is badly curated so series and episodes have little meaning but devine will download a 'collection' and individual videos carrying 'products' in the url.

The service is presently hosted on my github repository https://github.com/vinefeeder/VineFeeder/tree/main/devine-services/services/TPTV - just place the TPTV folder into your devine-services/services/ location

Using Vinefeeder as a front end will allow sensible searches and multiple downloading of media not in 'collections' so I really recommend that. However, devine will work directly with TPTV but since the site has no real concept of series or episodes the -w S01-S02 syntax will not work. Only urls with product or collection in the title will work eg devine dl TPTV https://tptvencore.co.uk/product/mckerns-memories-6337414977112

One bonus is that even subscription video appear to download. TPTV needs an email and password for the site in devine..yaml
However you do need to add login authorisation to devine.yaml

Which VPN do you use?

[milflover]

I use Tunnel Bear! Since it says "Service is not Geoblocked in your region" I thought it wouldn't be the problem :<

[phased]

[Attachment 87112 - Click to enlarge]

hey, how do i fix this error

Have a look at the "devine.yaml" file in your appdata/local/devine folder.

in the "dl:" section, do you have "sub_format: srt"?

i do, but it still dont work

[Attachment 87129 - Click to enlarge]

I kept getting the issue on and off and tried something new today.

devine uses a file named subtitle.py, in python3.13/site-packages/devine/core/tracks/subtitle.py . I changed this to an updated subtitle.py found at https://github.com/Parasitic5283/devine/blob/Add-Subby-support/devine/core/tracks/subtitle.py. I renamed the original subtitle.py to subtitle.orig and put the new subtitle.py in the same folder.

The new file needs a python module called 'subby'. There are a number of python subby's knocking about - use this one https://github.com/vevv/subby and follow installation instructions to install it as a pip module.

My python 3.13.3 issue with subs-format error seems to have gone now.

[ListyDoM]

I use Tunnel Bear! <

This VPN is not suitable (you can check this by simply opening the page in your browser), or if devine is installed with hola.exe, then you need to select USA instead of UK, i.e. in Tunnel Bear select USA, and hola will connect via the UK proxy itself.

Hi there guys and gals, I had to do a reinstall of my system and normally I would follow the install guide in this thread - 19th Jan 2025 19:43 #1304 and devine would install with no problems but when I follow the guide now it gets errors on the poetry install part, I tried manually installing poetry but I can't get it working, is there and updated guide to setup devine now?

I appreciate all the great cleaver people on this site who help out, thank you very much.

I've got it working again I had to install the pip install poetry-plugin-shell
When I start up my poetry shell I get this message

The "poetry.dev-dependencies" section is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Use "poetry.group.dev.dependencies" instead.

what is that?

It's not geoblocking, it's ITV blocking that VPN server.

[Tom Saurus]

"No titles returned, nothing to download" is happening quite frequently with new videos being added to TUBI. Thankfully so far Widevine Proxy 2 is working for such videos. I would like to understand what is causing this in Devine. Thank you for any guidance in advance.

[Tom Saurus]

Devine tip: I am finding with ALL4 that Widevine Proxy 2 that I can download the audio and video faster with that program. I can download the subtitles and chapters very fast since they are so small with Devine with the -S -C commands. Anyway I then mux combined subtitle chapter file into the audio video file with Clever FFmpeg GUI. I know it sounds silly to some but with me quite often Devine will hang and then fail probably because of fluctuations in my DSL. This works for me quite well and I thought it would be of some use. I hope it keeps working; but you never know.

[OnlyMeFFS1]

Does anyone know why this has started happening on ITV today, I am not using a VPN just direct connecting and I am logged in and can play the video on the website, it has usually worked up until today.

Olivier Nanist, three doors down from you, was at home today watching 4k porn on 4 devices at once; TV, laptop, phone and desktop computer. Sorry but there was no bandwidth left for you. On the plus side; he felt very sore when he heard about your problem.
