Unable to download songs

[titouanfuchs]

Today i tried to download some new songs, and i get an error for a lot (but not all) songs.
Like :

_`Downloading 'Metallica - Nothing Else Matters.mp3'

ERROR: Can not download this song. Got a 403

worker 0 is done with task: {'track_id': 1489945622, 'add_to_playlist': False} (state=mission accomplished)

Worker 0 is waiting for a task`_

[roymcclure]

Can confirm, happened to me as well. Doesn't happen with every song, some will download succesfully.

[kmille]

can confirm, too. It's a known issue for some songs. But it feels like it's occcuring more often than in the past. I will take a look the next days.

[Gwynei]

Same here.

[dejan995]

Same for me. When I first started using the app about 3 months ago, I could download what ever I wanted in FLAC quality.
Now FLAC is NOT downloading about 99.9% of the songs I tried.
MP3 is like playing the lottary, about 30% of the songs I tried actually downloaded succesfully.
Same goes for albums and ZIP files, it will just jump over the songs with 403 error.

I tried switching the cookie but no dice, everything is the same.
I even tried with a different account, thinking Deezer is somehow blocking me. Haven't tried with a different IP so this is still a possibility.

[roymcclure]

@dejan995 I tried with a different ip and still got the same result. Maybe they implemented some algorithm that chokes the stream when it detects "suspicious" song requests.

[kmille]

Deezer is migrating to a new API.

You can still download the song '2CELLOS - Viva La Vida'. DeezerDownloader sends the following request:
GET https://e-cdns-proxy-6.dzcdn.net/mobile/1/afe81113ad95767f887d8e89f1e7445f6f60f39375a65b5d4c69af22e09b7ce27d224f14ea853bb619d3a442e82c8c51a8161c4f1a5c3abac27a11a5277b4c021dcdd983071d3c8351cf5efcff043a75

If you play the song in the browser and check the sent requests in the debugger console:

first try

Understanding the javascript is pain.

Understanding the javascript is pain.

Apparently they use software for obfuscating names of functions and variables.

[dejan995]

I went on a little wild goose chase today and found this project: https://github.com/nathom/streamrip

Using it, I was able to fully download about 5 albums that where not downloading using Deezer Downloader, including 2CELLOS - Viva La Vida. @HaagenProd I was not able to download the Metalica track from from your post, I recieved this error: Track token has no sufficient rights on requested media, it is possible that this track has some special protection of some sorts.

NOTE: Everything mentioned above was downloaded without providing an ARL. As soon as I added one, the same problems from Deezer Downloader have started showing up.

@kmille The project linked, when it has no ARL provided uses something called Deezloader to download the tracks. I could not find much information about it though. Maybe you can take a look? This looks like it might provide some answeres and solutions for this problem.

[titouanfuchs]

Yeah the Metallica track is from the new remastered Black album, maybe it's protected idk, but I also wanted to download older albums but nothing worked. @dejan995

[kmille]

Can you give me an example song, that works with streamrip, but not with DeezerDownloader? 2CELLOS - Viva La Vida still works with DeezerDownloader. For example 'Patrice - Fear Rules' (https://www.deezer.com/us/track/858978) does not work with both of them.

Are you using streamrip with a subscription?

Falling back to Deezloader (unstable). If you have a subscription, run rip config --deezer to log in.

[kmille]

If you don't supply login credentials, streamrip downloads the song from dz.loaderapp.info. Kinda weird?

GET /proxydownload/Music/9/Viva%20La%20Vida-12241569.flac HTTP/1.1
Host: dz.loaderapp.info
User-Agent: python-requests/2.26.0
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Accept: */*
Connection: keep-alive

loaderapp.info belongs to a mobile app. The android app has ~50 downloads (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sayem.downloader)!?
rip gives you the option to supply an ARL cookie like we do. And the code uses the same API we use.

return f"https://e-cdns-proxy-{track_hash[0]}.dzcdn.net/mobile/1/{path}"

(venv) kmille@linbox:streamrip rip config --deezer                            
Follow the instructions at https://github.com/nathom/streamrip/wiki/Finding-your-Deezer-ARL-Cookie
Paste your ARL here:  

I think streamrip will have the same problem in the future. But I'm happy about any hints!

UPDATE 1:
streamrip requests GET dz.loaderapp.info/deezer/1411/https://api.deezer.com/track/12241569 which redirects to
/proxydownload/Music/9/Viva%20La%20Vida-12241569.flac. The 1411 is hard coded (means 'deezer' and quality '2').

[dejan995]

@kmille Here is an example LISA - MONEY
Deezer Downloader can't download this track. Streamrip downloads it but without ARL. When I tried the same song with ARL provided streamrip could not download it.

Tried downloading Patrice - Fear Rules on both Deezer Downloader and streamrip. It faild to download on both.
Deezer Downlader gave me the usual 403 error.
Streamrip without ARL gave me Track token has no sufficient rights on requested media. When I put my ARL it gave me an empty error message, just this: Unable to stream Patrice - Fear Rules (Album Version). Message:

Are you using streamrip with a subscription?

Everything I tried so far I have done both ways, with ARL and without ARL.
Keep in mind my Deezer account is on the Free Plan. No premium subscriptions.

• Without ARL, so far, I'm able to download all the songs I was not able to download using Deezer Downloader. Exceptions are the Metalica track from @HaagenProd and the Patrice - Fear Rules track.
• With ARL, so far, I was not able to download anything. Always the same error message: Unable to stream track_name. Message:

If you don't supply login credentials, streamrip downloads the song from dz.loaderapp.info. Kinda weird?

Yes, this is weird.
Looking from the error messages I got in my browser when trying to directly download tracks using this: dz.loaderapp.info/deezer/1411/https://api.deezer.com/track/track_id, I think that dz.loaderapp.info is actually hosting some modified version of streamrip or streamrip is based on something that loaderapp.info uses.

Error Message:
{"statusCode":500,"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"code,2002, message,Track token has no sufficient rights on requested media."}

The error message is exactly the same as the one I get in the CLI.
I have no idea what is going on here.

I looked on the GitHub profiles for both developers, the one that owns the streamrip repo and the one that is credited as the developer of the Loader app on the Play Store. Looks like these projects are not connected to eachother.
Also, whatever is hosted on dz.loaderapp.info seems to be private code because I could not find any reference for it on the GitHub profile of the Loader app developer.

[fukurosim]

I think deezer rewrited their DRM. Same error with all of the tracks in new Drake album.

[rllola]

I have been able to partially resolve this by converting the FILESIZE_* value to an int. I noticed they were strings.

see

'FILESIZE_AAC_64': '0', 'FILESIZE_MP3_64': '0', 'FILESIZE_MP3_128': '3064057', 'FILESIZE_MP3_256': '0', 'FILESIZE_MP3_320': '7660146', 'FILESIZE_MP4_RA1': '0', 'FILESIZE_MP4_RA2': '0', 'FILESIZE_MP4_RA3': '0', 'FILESIZE_MHM1_RA1': '0', 'FILESIZE_MHM1_RA2': '0', 'FILESIZE_MHM1_RA3': '0', 'FILESIZE_FLAC': '0',

so at this line it will always put me song quality 9 even when it is not available.
https://github.com/kmille/deezer-downloader/blob/master/app/deezer.py#L330

[rllola]

It seems that sometime it indicates that MP3 320 is available when it is not. I can always download in song_quality = 1...

[LucaMozzo]

gg @rllola you nailed it.

replacing lines 330 to 333 with

    song_quality = 9 if song.get("FILESIZE_FLAC") and song.get("FILESIZE_FLAC") != '0' and config['deezer'].getboolean('flac_quality') else \
                   3 if song.get("FILESIZE_MP3_320") and song.get("FILESIZE_MP3_320") != '0' else \
                   5 if song.get("FILESIZE_MP3_256") and song.get("FILESIZE_MP3_256") != '0' else \
                   1

allows you to download any song.

I believe they increased the authorization granularity, and they now check if you are premium or not and limit the audio quality accordingly. I still need to validate this assumption, but seeing 2021 songs available only at 128kbps and getting a 403 when trying to access the FLAC or 320kbps files (instead of a 404), leads me to think that.

@kmille worth adding the fix above (or through integer casting) for the time being?

[kmille]

sounds good. I hope I will get it done in the next few days.

[kmille]

I applied the fix in 172f5c6. Thanks @rllola. I removed the flac feature.
It now works with a free account. But with the ARL cookie of my premium subscription account it behaves as follows:

free account
download mp3 -> download with 128kbit/s (before it was 320kbit/s)
flac -> doesn't work. I removed the feature instead of always switching to mp3 (in this case, there was no 403 error)

premium subscription
mp3 -> 403
flac -> 403
I don't understand why it happens this way. But the general download functionality finally works again.

[majes1]

any luck with 403? From 180 songs on playlist downloaded 3 in 320kbps, rest is 403 :(

Running on Docker@Windows 10 with premium subscription

[nickberto]

same, premium subscription and downloading is not working at all (403 error)

[kmille]

At the moment, downloading 128 kbit/s mp3 is working (free plan is enough). Please update the docker image you use.

[alipio]

I can confirm it behaves exactly the way you guys have described (premium subscription -> 403). I've just created a bogus free account a couple of minutes ago and everything is "smooth" now, just downloaded a whole playlist (well, 48 of 50 songs, but hey, I'm fine with that). Good job, @kmille!

[robvaneck]

Any ideas on how to download 320kbps?
I've upgraded to pro, and indeed: the download times out entirely.

[Pan6ora]

While searching for a way to download FLAC songs from deezer, I found this project which I just tested and is currently working.

Maybe this could help you to fix your own problem (even if it's written in Go) ? It seems to use more keys than the arl cookie (see the project README).

[TylerWDoesStuff]

There's a different project called deemix that works for my HiFi free account, specifically used the GUI for me.
(THIS IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED BY ITS CREATOR, though it still works for me)

[MightySmallBalls]

Does deemix really work for you? Check the files, most likely 128kbit mp3.

[dtromb]

Every song is returning 403 for me, this seems totally broken. =/

[kmille]

Every song is returning 403 for me, this seems totally broken. =/

Are you using a cookie from a free subscription account?

[staeter]

I also get the 403 for every song with a paid account

[KmdKeen]

There's a different project called deemix that works for my HiFi free account, specifically used the GUI for me. (THIS IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED BY ITS CREATOR, though it still works for me)

Thx for the tipp! Works well for me, even with paid account! Still only 128kbit, but the GUI is easy to handle...

[alipio]

Guys, I managed to download a full playlist two weeks ago using a free account, just as usual.

[javi242]

Hi, I'm using docker like this:

sudo docker run -p 5000:5000 --volume $(pwd)/downloads/:/mnt/deezer-downloader --env DEEZER_COOKIE_ARL=changeme kmille2/deezer-downloader:latest

with my arl cookie of course. Then I open http://localhost:5000 in browser and I can search for songs and listen to preview but when trying to download I always get the error "Can not download this song. Got a 403".

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

[javi242]

Ok now I got it working, using a free account, but the quality is 128. Is there a way to download using my premium account so the quality is 320? Thanks in advance.

[jesusj]

I tested the project @Pan6ora mentioned and it works correctly, the content is there. I made a small modification to the Go file in that repo and besides the FLAC it is possible to download the MP3_320 version.

It is just a matter of seeing what deezer-downloader is doing and port the code from Go.

[kmille]

I haven't looked at the project but it's good to know that 320 kbit/s downloads work. I currently don't want to put effort into this project. But pull requests are welcome, so feel free to fix the code :)
