[OpenSubtitles] 401 Unauthorized

[rednoah]

FileBot 4.9.4 and earlier only store the MD5 hash of the password you enter via filebot -script fn:configure and thus uses the MD5 hash as password, instead of sending your password verbatim over the internet.

Important: for security improvement, you can use HTTPS and/or send $password as MD5($password) hash.

https://trac.opensubtitles.org/projects ... LRPC#LogIn


Presumably, this mode of login is no longer possible due to server-side changes in how passwords are stored and verified:

UPDATE: 20 Jan 2022
• The configure script has been updated and will now correctly configure the OpenSubtitles login details for all FileBot 4.* versions, so filebot -script fn:configure will just work again.
• The Login button in the GUI no longer works in older versions, but you can use filebot -script fn:configure from the command-line instead. The entered login details will work for both GUI and CLI. Please press WIN+R and then paste filebot -script fn:configure to run the command.



UPDATE: 28 Mar 2022
• You must use your username and password from www.opensubtitles.org (main site) and not www.opensubtitles.com (beta site) because login details are not interchangeable between the two sites.

Hello! Just chiming in to hopefully help others in my situation down the line:

I've run the command from the March 28th update edit. I've paid for VIP for both OpenSubtitles dot com and dot org (I originally was only on .com for my Jellyfin server but having Filebot auto-download for TV show episodes would be a GODSEND to be able to verify the subs work before uploading them to the server). No matter what I do, I'm still getting the 401 Unauthorized in Filebot. Is this a known issue? I've gone as far as to re-install FB to log in from a fresh copy.

OpenSubtitles login works with FileBot 5.* at this moment in time:

Console Output: Select all

$ filebot -script fn:configure --def osdbUser="YOUR_USERNAME" --def osdbPwd="YOUR_PASSWORD"

I'm running FileBot 5.1.3 (r10185) (JNA Native 6.1.6 on a Synology DS2015xs "System Property: net.filebot.WebServices.OpenSubtitles.v2=true") and get the following when I try and set my OpenSubtitles.org details via Filebot node:

Console Output: Select all

$ filebot -script 'fn:configure' --def 'osdbUser=[USERNAME]' 'osdbPwd=[PASSWORD]' --log-file '/var/packages/filebot-node/var/filebot.log'

When I try and fetch subtitles, I get the 401 Unauthorized Request message.

Probably a temporary issue. It's working for me at this point in time.


Does it work again for you now as well?


How is the new OpenSubtitles API working for you in general? Good enough to enable it by default? (todays particular issue aside)

[richyb]

Sorry for the delay in responding.

TL;DR: Setting net.filebot.WebServices.OpenSubtitles.v2=true currently seems to break authentication.

Long:

Using the Synology GUI and Filebot Node 0.4.7 (was 0.4.6) it fails:

Shell: Select all

filebot -script 'fn:configure' --def 'osdbUser=[USERNAME]' 'osdbPwd=[PASSWORD]' --log-file '/var/packages/filebot-node/var/filebot.log'

(UID is that of the user "FileBot")

However, trying it via SSH/Shell with the exact same command (as in, I copied from the GUI log):

Shell: Select all

[synology user]@DS2015xs:~$ filebot -script 'fn:configure' --def 'osdbUser=[USERNAME]' 'osdbPwd=[PASSWORD]' --log-file '/var/packages/filebot-node/var/filebot.log'

(Other UID is that of my Synology user)

Logging in as the Filebot user via shell (using

Code: Select all

sudo su - /bin/bash FileBot

) and trying the command gives the same results as the GUI.

The contents of each accounts /var/packages/filebot/var/data/(uid)/prefs.properties is identical except from the time/datestamp. The only difference is the Filebot user has a system.properties with "net.filebot.WebServices.OpenSubtitles.v2=true". Removing that file from the command line and retrying the GUI works:

Shell: Select all

filebot -script 'fn:configure' --def 'osdbUser=[USERNAME]' 'osdbPwd=[PASSWORD]' --log-file '/var/packages/filebot-node/var/filebot.log'

401 Unauthorized Request suggests that you're using the wrong username / password.

Are you using the correct username and password? Keep in mind that opensubtitles.org (old API) and opensubtitles.com (new API) do not share user data, so the username / password that works for one may not work for the other.




EDIT:

I see that FileBot doesn't clear the cache before sending login requests. A filebot -clear-cache once may be helpful if you've tried to login with the wrong password the first time around.
