I have made 2 scripts to bypass download limit(using the bypass site) for the 2 different types of folders(album/filesystem)

The first script is based on the existing script that relies on the bypass service, i made modifications and added information, it requires pixeldrain API key to get file sizes of the items, its meant to handle album type folders, links that have "/l/" in them.
e.g.

https://pixeldrain.com/l/Mu2qC139

Clicking on the "Show Bypass Links" will open a popup with the table, and show bypass links for each file, size of each file will only update after clicking show bypass links and will only happen if you set the API_KEY in the script, each item will in both the album and the list will now be a link to the item's download page(e.g. /u/icVBPJrt), not to the number of the item in the album(e.g. #item=3)
you can sort the table by filename or size(assuming you configured API_KEY its finished loading all the files sizes).

First Script

The second script is meant to handle filesystem type folders, links that have "/d/" in them, it does not require API Key since this type of folder shows more information by default, e.g.

https://pixeldrain.com/d/QuoKtG7m

it relies on the same bypass redirect service, however since they dont support filesystem type(AFAIK), this script utilizes a redirect script to correct the url once the bypass download link is pressed, it will show a "file not found" page and then should instantly redirect to the correct url.

Second Script
 
when you paste the script in tampermonkey, edit this line and insert your key:

Code:
		const API_KEY = ''; // <--- SET YOUR API KEY HERE
 
Sorry ahead of time, but how do I find the API KEY to begin with? I'm what some might refer to as "a retard".
 
I put my API_Key inside the '' part of the code, the button and the pop up window does not appear at all.

I tried refresh and reboot using Google Chrome, I turned on developer mode in the extension settings, are there any other settings in chrome or tampermonkey we need to be aware of?

I tried both of the scripts for each type of pixeldrain the L and D urls with no results. I did notice a flag with your code.

Has anyone else on Chrome using tampermonkey got this to work?

 
I wouldnt know about making stuff work in Google Chrome, that is a mess that keeps on growing.
Could you try using Firefox?

The L script also prints to the console warnings, did you check if anything was there?

P.S. the flag alert doesnt cause any issues as far as I know.
 
AFAIK "/u/" is a single file link, the first script should cover that("L" folder script).
 
Even though Jdownloader event scripter and TamperMonkey both use Javascript, unfortunately they will not work with each other. They both draw from different libraries/packages etc.
 
Unfortunate. I really love JDM2, but its cumbersome having to change IPs every 20 minutes bc of the IP download speed limiter.
 
I don't use that, so i cant help you there, but i do feel you with the ip change for limit bypass

I've been looking for an alternative to pixeldrain all together because of the "free tier" limits, but no luck so far...
 
Any script that lets you sort pixeldrain by file size or by type (to find videos essentially)
 
This script lets you sort by file size assuming you insert an api key...
Read the instructions, its relevant only for L type album/folder.
(give the script time to fully update the file sizes before attempting to sort)
example:



 
Thanks. Will give it a go

I did end up testing separate script one in meantime which works straight away and does the job but is crap (too many api call) and resets if you click on any one links etc
 
No matter where I try, it always sends me to this site. can you help gamedrive.or g
 
nothing i can do about it, the service that provided the bypass is cooked.
if they fix their side, script will work again.
if anyone knows a different service that provides bypass for pd i can try to integrate it in the script.

best thing i can suggest now is to install a vpn extension in a separate browser and open pd links there.
