Guide Fansly Downloading

I installed ffmpeg. But, what's scraper is doing, is downloading all the segments, .ts files, and not merging them. So I'm getting a bunch of folders, with segments in them of the videos, and not being merged into the final video. It's downloading some videos, but leaving majority into folders, that have the many segments.
I suppose there's software to merge the files.
How do have fansly scrapper merge them? Shouldn't it be automatic?
 
ffmpeg should do the merging. Probably not installed correctly.
 
I'll check, and update what I find. While it's certainly possible, I'm fairly confident I installed it right. I used cmd ffmpeg, to verify, and it showed up fine, with its version. It's listed in the environmental path as well. But I'll check when I can.
Thank you
 
Sounds installed correctly then if you did those checks. What OS are you on? You can also try checking the logs generated by fansly-scraper.
 
Using Windows 11. The logs say downloading a segment.xx and that it was a successful download, and that's it. Nothing about merging or joining.
Sure can. I open a cmd run ffmpeg and it appears.
I'm stumped. Super stumped. If it will just join those .ts into the video.
 
Ok! Think I got it. It's working. Literally only thing I did differently was use btbn full version of ffmpeg instead of the suggested gyan.dev version.
Thank you tons to minir and 000f for trying to help 👍
 
i sorta wish the scrapper would let us at least change the date model for dl'ing from that source^^ it would make a cleaner looking DL folder. but not a deal breaker by any means. a very nice tool to scrape fansly indeed
 
im having this same problem and nothing has helped so far :SadgeCry:
this is what shows up in the logs
Code:
Unrecognized option 'vsync'.
Error splitting the argument list: Option not found

Hmm even tried the other ffmpeg btbn? Be sure it's the full version. Triple check it's installed. With the .exe fansrcapper location, run a cmd and ffmpeg to check if installed. Idk, but I'd say certainly it's the ffmpeg install. There are ways to merge the .ts files but it's sorta a hassle
 
What are some or all of the current methods to download pictures and videos from Fansly?
 
Yt saver. Fansly scrapper; requires learning, installing ffmpeg and learning some cmd, not difficult. A simple right click extension works with photos....I think. Cat catch extension works for videos, theres a small learning curve with catcatch; sometimes for large videos have to change video .ts to lossless .mp4, mostly easy to do.
I suggest any basic method for photos, maybe a right click extension, and cat catch. Yt saver, there's versions on this forum that easily does everything.
 
Yes they all get the highest quality of both. I don't dl to many photos on fansly but for me, I use fansly scrapper for large scrapping. Then I use cat catch for videos. Yt saver, very easy to use for photo and video. But id probably use right click extension for photos or any other myriad of methods for photos.
 
I forgot as well the extension Stream Recorder - HLS & m3u8 Video Downloader works very easily for videos with fansly highest quality downloads.
