TikTokApi: Sessions work with headless=False but fail with headless=True (even with Virtual Display) "TikTok returned an empty response"

[hcushi]

I made a modification to the code and added a "domcontentloaded" in tiktok.__create_session Something interesting happened to me when I run the application with headless=False and channel=chrome, it works, but when I pass headless=True and channel=chrome it starts to fail and gives "TikTok returned an empty response" in the same way I tried to keep headless=False with a virtual Display(pyvirtualdisplay and xvfb-run in docker), but it still detects that I do not have the active TikTok screen

To reply, use get videos and get comments as shown in the examples

playwright=1.52.0
python=3.11.13

api = TikTokApi()

    await api.create_sessions(num_sessions=2, sleep_after=2, cookies=cookies,
                              proxies=proxy, context_options={"viewport": {"width": 1694, "height": 875},
                                "user_agent":"Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/137.0.0.0 Safari/537.36",
                                })
                                
                                

override_browser_args = [
            "--disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled",
            "--start-maximized",
            "--disable-dev-shm-usage"
        ]
        headless = False
        browser = await playwright.chromium.launch(
            headless=headless, args=override_browser_args, executable_path=None, channel="chrome"
        )

await page.goto(url)
await page.goto(url)  # hack: tiktok blocks first request not sure why, likely bot detection
# by doing this, we are simulate scroll event using mouse to `avoid` bot detection
x, y = random.randint(0, 50), random.randint(0, 50)
a, b = random.randint(1, 50), random.randint(100, 200)

await page.mouse.move(x, y)
# await page.wait_for_load_state("networkidle")
try:
    await page.wait_for_load_state("networkidle")
except Exception as e:
    self.logger.warning(f"No se alcanzó 'networkidle': {e}, usando 'domcontentloaded'")
    await page.wait_for_load_state("domcontentloaded", timeout=5000)
await page.mouse.move(a, b)

In case it happened to someone, because it seems that TikTok has it well controlled when it runs without the screen even when using a virtual one like pyvirtualdisplay or xvfb-run
