same problem

[Janxyxy]

Reddit might have updated their ID styles for comment elements. The old selector:
page.locator(f"#t1_{comment['comment_id']}").screenshot(path=f"assets/temp/{reddit_id}/png/comment_{idx}.png")
I updated the selector to:
page.locator(f"#t1_{comment['comment_id']}-comment-rtjson-content").screenshot(path=f"assets/temp/{reddit_id}/png/comment_{idx}.png")

Now it matches the current ID structure, and the script works again.

where are the lines

[eyaadi]

okay so to make the solution easier just go to the video creation file and then go to the screenshot downloader.py file then copy and paste this code make sure to replace it, code can be found on this pastebin https://pastebin.com/raw/FFZryj46
