AniDB Input Plugin is Broken #2219

Description

@XVicarious

Expected behaviour:

Retrieve my AniDB wishlist

Actual behaviour:

Returns 403 error

Steps to reproduce:

  • Step 1: Run using a valid AniDB id who has a public wishlist

Okay, basically they don't allow the basic user-agent used by requests (or flexget if it changes it).

It turns out changing the user-agent does work. I guess I had some kind of fluke when I tried it before. However, it only works for the first page of the wishlist and OVAs are left out of the results.

I'm working on fixing it now.

However, for me at least even if you change the header, you will get a temporary ban from the website.

I am currently looking for options to work around this as they don't have an API for the wishlist yet (only been waiting 15 years).
