using default provider (theflix):

The name of the provider [theflix]: 
[!] Sorry I don't know that provider! |  The read operation timed out

using Solar to select S3E1 of a tv show (the expanse):

[!] Sorry I don't know that provider! |  list index out of range

in an arch linux vm I installed mov-cli and it just spits out line 1: not: command not found where as on my main pc (windows) it runs completely fine, no I didnt mix up the install cmds

It gets as far as to episode selection, or movie selection, but when the stream is selected, it doesn't open the stream with mpv, instead it gives this error and closes. I have another account on the system, named "IIT Work", however mov-cli is not installed in that account. Idk why it is searching for anything there.

I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

Every time the program tries to do a search, this error pops out: [!] An error has occurred | Couldn't find a tree builder with the features you requested: lxml. Do you need to install a parser library?

I found out this error pops out because of the lines: soup = BS(source, "lxml") should be: soup = BS(source, "html.parser")

IDK if this is an error of the lxml library or if the new python version made some breaking changes, anyway using html.parser solves the problem, so I'm going to fix all the lines and make a pull request

1. I couldn't figure out how to use it, adding a showcase in readme would help newcomers to get started. Example: https://github.com/pystardust/ani-cli#showcase.

2. Whats my mistake?

Please name the movie/series with the provider, ex: theflix: spiderman theflix
Sorry, I don't know that provider

After the update it worked fine for a few hours but now I am once again unable to get past the "I don't know this provider" So I am wondering if something broke on my end or did the sites change something again I appreciate the work you guys have put into this thanks.

The scraper is currently failing any searches.

Trying: ./mov-cli $ANYSHOWORMOVIENAME

Returns: No search results found

I'm gonna try to fix this on my own and open a PR, but it's a lot to read through. The URL's being scraped still exist, maybe need to add some verbose output for failures. I know gogoplay and gogoanime recently had broken keys for ani-cli

downloaded using curl movie search works, searched american psycho and got this: https://theflixvd.b-cdn.net/videos/1611591258135_American.Psycho.2000.1080p.BluRay.x264-nikt0.mp4?token=H_c8hdOl9m17S8-kXek28yD8HAU1XZfku942-2XEjjQ&expires=1660 No search results found%

If it would be useful I would be able to rewrite the readme or at least parts of it to make it looks a bit more fancy, I can include things like a showcase and detailed installation instructions for those who need them

I had to install bs4, colorama, and httpx manually and then run pip install to get it installed

After the update it was again working fine for a while but now I am running into a new issue, it applies to all providers it just returns a "encrypted" error I will post a screenshot is this an issue on my end? thank you for your time

I've tried the provided sflix and dopebox are working as it shows that the provider has changed.

also playing contetns via theflix crashes when skipping through in the progress bar.

@R3tr0Ananas please have look into this issue. Thank you.

In case you missed the news, 9goal and a bunch of other sites were closed down (seized by HSI actually) a couple of days ago. Their webpage is unavailable and so is their api used by mov-cli, with cloudflare returning a 521 error for both (checked with various ips from around the world with nordvpn). Thus, 9goal can now be removed from mov-cli :(

And all this happened right when I wanted to start using the python version of mov-cli because of 9goal!

I tried uninstalling mov-cli to reinstall it and try again but my system claims it doesn't exist. Heres what outputs when I type "mov-cli":

[X]: Error while connecting to Discord Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/yaboi_sakurai/.local/bin/mov-cli", line 5, in from mov_cli.main import movcli File "/home/yaboi_sakurai/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/mov_cli/init.py", line 1, in from . import main File "/home/yaboi_sakurai/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/mov_cli/main.py", line 27, in default=f"{config.getprovider()}", File "/home/yaboi_sakurai/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/mov_cli/utils/config.py", line 45, in getprovider if config.providerexists() is True: File "/home/yaboi_sakurai/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/mov_cli/utils/config.py", line 59, in providerexists file = f"{config.winorlinux()}/mov_cli/.provider" File "/home/yaboi_sakurai/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/mov_cli/utils/config.py", line 15, in winorlinux return f"/home/{os.getlogin()}" OSError: [Errno 6] No such device or address

I have seen the subtitles are available in most the providers via the settings option in the video player but the mov-cli doesn't extract them.

will it be supported? or possible external support to be included like subscene or others?
