Guide Fansly Downloading

The issue with large videos is more one of memory. The current implementation basically holds everything in memory, before it writes it to disk. The larger the video, the more demanding that is. Since I want the script to work on mobile, it's better if that can get offloaded to the disk asap. The new method will basically switch between holding in memory and writing direct to disk based on estimated file size. In memory is generally faster, but if your browser crashes, that's not very useful lol

The updated script is very nearly ready, but I've encountered an issue where some of the master playlists fansly serves up have weird audio tracks that aren't real, and the script tries to replace the actual audio with those, and bombs.
 
What exactly are people using to download videos from Fansly? I'm on a creator account and won't compromise it with a risk of ban via the python script, and IDM trial + reset is annoying. Any other options?

FYI, this is an alpha version of the next release, video downloads should work properly now, and have in all of my testing. I've tested it on PC and mobile. On PC I've tasted it in Chromium based browsers and Firefox. On Android, I've tested it with Edge. I don't have an iPhone, so I can't test there, but in theory it should work.

applanana since you were just asking, you can use this, if you know how to use Userscripts.

As I said, it's an alpha, so any and all feedback you can provide would be very helpful. It's not the main branch, so you'll want to disable any current version you're using, and you'll eventually need to switch back, once the final version is released, you could just use it to copy and paste the code, then it should automatically update with the official release.
 
Is there a browser extension or something that can be used to download PPV pictures? Aloha works for me only with videos, but not for pictures unfortunately
 
hi everyone , I found this thread today itself and didn't read it all , but can you tell me that if I do not have the vids purchased can i still download them somehow??
 
U can't bypass the paywall :{ if u can't see them u can't get them...
 
that's a permanent bad luck then , btw can you get me one vid if possible somehow
 
Hey guys, i've down that cat catch is the absolute best to download them, especially being able to get them at the full res, highly reccomended, just google "猫抓(cat-catch)" and choose whatever browser you have.
 
Hi im looking to get a few vids off Fansly to populate the forums on here. Usually use absol right click on OF and that seems to mostly work there and have not been banned (yet) but i heard Fansly is a bit different. It does not seem absol right click works on fansly and i wanted to know if there is a way to download stuff (whole pages and purchased items) without having to resort to some coding or github solution. Also would prefer to run the risk of a ban.
 
I keep promoting it, but can't say I've gotten much feedback. I guess it counts as a "github" solution, but I've continued to enhance/modify the userscript for downloading. It should now work just fine, even for large videos (well, this is a test release that fixes that issue). You'll have to download by individual posts or DMs, but that's better than individual images on OF.

Try it here: https://github.com/AnimatedEightbal.../heads/mediabunnytest/fansly-download.user.js
 
Ok, official release with properly working video downloads (e.g. play in VLC just fine). Videos are queued to only download one at a time, images are now queued to only download 10 simultaneously at a time (this was for you to try norpix77 - please let me know ASAP if it works for those 100+ sets).
There's a bunch of other small changes under the hood, too, but that's the big stuff.

FYI, videos may take a second, particularly larger ones. If you want progress, you can check the console log - I do hope to implement onscreen progress eventually, but it's low priority compared to features.

Should automatically update, even if you were on the test branch, but here's the link: https://github.com/AnimatedEightball/Fansly-Userscript/raw/refs/heads/main/fansly-download.user.js

Should work on desktop and mobile (at least Edge for Android, I'd really love someone to test with something else, particularly iPhone). The largest video I have to test on was only like 250mb though).

I think I'm gonna try and tackle Live streams next. I poked around, and it looks like it should be doable.

This heavily utilized AI, but hey, if it works, it works.

Please leave feedback!!!
 
I can only download videos that are in a chat messege. Cannot download from normal wall post or Media section?? In aloha browser
 
So far I've only used it to download preview vids (not subbed to anyone atm) and it seemed to work fine for the smaller stuff. Tried using the M3U8 method to get em to be higher quality to for when I wanna post, but then nothin would happen I'd see an error in console.

Code:
		M3U8 in-browser download set to true

Any scraper for pc work at least for photos? Downloading one at a time is some Sisyphus ass behavior.

Preferably any that have post date in filename
 
I don't know of one but you could probably have AI create something for you, at least for images.
 
I'll take this to DMs, to avoid clogging the thread with discussion/troubleshooting, but I'm curious why you didn't have m3u8 on by default.
 
I just want to download some images. It is fine with the browser "Aloha Browser" on mobile device.?!
