Hi,

What can I do if on pluralsight my account is locket due to high volume of requests. Support says:
"
We have blocked your account because our security systems have flagged your Pluralsight account for an unusual amount of activity. This means a high volume of requests have occurred every 10-30 seconds for a prolonged period of time. Please note that this high volume of activity is in violation of our terms of service"

That happened after I put about 10 link of learning paths. Each one was a link of a course with 10+ video. Shortly after the linkgrabber started to extract the video links, it happened.
Is there a setting where I can adjust linkgrabber to make link extraction only in every 20 sec?

Thanks!

Not really.

Here is what you could do:
1. Go to Settings --> Plugins --> pluralsight.com --> Enable "Fast Link Check"
From now on, filesize will not get displayed until you start the downloads.

2. Do not e.g. add 20 courses at the same time.
We already process one after another but we will never be able to perfectly time this ...
You are the first user who reported this so maybe you did simply add too much in a too short time.

Other than that, if you want to keep adding so much content, you should think about an EventScripter script which slows down the process for you to really e.g. wait 60 seconds between adding each course.

EDIT

All in all this is not really a JDownloader issue.
It seems like this website is trying to prevent the usage of automated tools to download their content - this is not uncommon.

Hi,

Thanks for the tip.

As for the second part of your answere

You mean I should write one or is there already or should I ask for one?
As to the first option is no chance. Me and java script? It's beyond my qualification.

Ask in the thread - I do not really have an overview of existing EventScripter scripts but mgpai (that one user in the linked thread) has.
