Only getting part of the CAPTCHA image about audible HOT 6 CLOSED

I had the same issue some times ago. The problem goes away as I logged in some days later.

You can go around with a captcha callback like this:

import audible


def captcha_callback(captcha_url: str) -> str:
    print("Please open the captcha url in a webbrowser of your choice.")
    print(captcha_url)

    guess = input("Answer for CAPTCHA: ")
    return str(guess).strip().lower()


auth = audible.Authenticator.from_login(..., captcha_callback=captcha_callback)

Or you can use the external login with:

import audible

auth = audible.Authenticator.from_login_external(locale="LOCALE_CODE")

from audible.

Thanks for the quick response, @mkb79 !
The external login didn't work for me. When I tried to copy the (long) URL as prompted, maybe because it was too long but pressing Enter didn't work; the script wouldn't take the URL.
I removed the external login code and all of a sudden, the captcha started to work again.
I'm all good now.

Your issue with the external login seams the same as in issue-32.

It‘s good to hear that your captcha issue is gone away. I can advise you to register a Audible device with my package. So you don’t need to login ever again.

If you are interested in using the external login you can read here! The problem seams to be Mac OS related. You can try to import readline module. Maybe this solves the issue. If it helps please report to me so I can post the solution to issue-32.

Hi @mkb79
Sorry for the late response.
Adding the readline module did the trick for me.

Thanks!
