Hello,
To solve some captcha, JD needs access to a web browser, ie. Turbobit.
It shoud'be nice to integrate a light browser inside the container.
I will try to do it.
Many thanks for your nice work.
Paul

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look at this!

Just for debugging: For most captchas the integrated phantomjs should do the work.

If I remember correctly, a real browser is only needed for exotic captchas, or if something goes wrong. Would be a good fallback, though!

Do you have any example of a download link that would require a real browser?

Not anymore, sadly. @clx81 since you brought it up: any example?

For reference, this link has more information about captchas that need browser: https://support.jdownloader.org/Knowledgebase/Article/View/42/14/jd-opens-my-browser-to-display-captchas

Hello Jocelyn,
This link need browser : http://turbobit.net/ozmzsk9hxi2c.html

To add further, some settings might need tweaking:

In the advanced settings:

GeneralSettings: Browser Command Line CommandLine to open a link in a browser. Use %s as wildcard for the url

is currently set to ['/usr/bin/firefox','%s'] on my setup.

Then, there is:
BrowserCaptchaSolver: Browser Commandline Example: [ 'C:Program Files (x86)GoogleChromeApplicationchrome.exe', '-app=%s' ]
also set to ['/usr/bin/firefox','%s']

No idea, if firefox is the way to go here? There seems to be a chromium package for alpine!

In this scenario, a full web browser is not required.. Ideally, I would like to find and use a light-weight browser that support the captchas. A browser like firefox or chromium would double (if not more) the size of the container image!

There is Dillo running on Alpine, but I don't know if it can do the job !

Tried, but doesn't properly display captchas (at least the SweetCaptcha one).

I agree that Firefox will increase the container image but if you run JD2 for a few days with some downloads the memory size increased up to 900 Mb. We see that also when running it out of docker (verified on Debian 8)

You talk about the RAM or disk space?

I talk about the RAM, I think that JD2 don't flush the RAM until reboot.

Please support built-in browser, otherwise it can not pass captcha.
At present, you can use the Android client, the normal input captcha.
But that's not the perfect way.

My setup is highly automated and can even solve recaptcha v2 with the integrated shadowjs. Am using 9kw.eu for this.
This is working fine as-is. No browser required..

@rix1337 Thank you very much.

@jlesage Thank you for the frequent updates!

Hello, it is possible to implement a firefox inside container? I tried it without any success.
Thanks a lot

You can install it by executing add-pkg firefox-esr in the container. But like others said a web browser should not be required.

Hello jlesage,
thank you for your support. If i use the jdownloader with firefox the container always crash at a link paste.
I use these settings in the jdownloader.
GeneralSettings: Browser Command Line -> ['/usr/bin/firefox','%s']
BrowserCaptchaSolver: Browser Commandline -> ['/usr/bin/firefox','%s']

I know the solution without any browser from 'rix1337' works well.
I think my idea is an all in one isolated container.

I remember having similar issue when I evaluated the possibility of integrating a browser. I think there is some incompatibility between JDownloader, which needs glibc, and Firefox, which is compiled with musl.

another info: if you dont want to user solver services (9kw, etc.) you can enable 'solve by app/myjdownloader'.

This works for all captcha types and does not require a browser aswell.

You just need a phone or desktop browser at hand when a captcha appears.

@rix1337 Thanks for the additional info!
Maybe there is another browser easier to implement in the container?
Train simulator download free. I think 'Copy/Paste'(mobile phone use) would be easier if i have both in one container.

none that I know of. maybe try the captcha through myjdownloader option for now.

You have PhantomJs
Question: can not directly paste a link, we must go through the clipboard button at the top right ?

Hi @jlesage i writed a dockercompose here using your docker image behind an proxy (traefik) and added Minio for access to downloaded files

The standard firefox in this docker is version 47, but the jdownloader captcha addon requires 48

Sorry what do you mean exactly? Firefox is not part of the container image..

oh my fault, sorry. This is the wrong docker :D. mixed two nearly identical ones. ignore me

Hi @jlesage
I have tried installing firefox-esr package on the image but its working strangely.
If i log into the shell and run firefox command i get firefox window on my browser and the browsing works without any issue.
But if try to open firefox clicking any link on jdownloader different kind of error arises.

Example error 1:
[Parent 6507] WARNING: pipe error (38): Connection reset by peer: file /home/buildozer/aports/community/firefox-esr/src/firefox-52.9.0esr/ipc/chromium/src/chrome/common/ipc_channel_posix.cc, line 322

Example error 2:

I am not sure whats going on here.
I think it will be really helpful if you can add a seperate image with firefox for those who don't care about the image size.

Thanks.

Try to create the container with the following parameter: --shm-size 2g
This is usually required to properly runs firefox.

i had profile permission issues or SSL issues with Firefox, Dillo and Midori. Chromium worked for me. In Advanced Settings i put:
