Description

I am trying to use the DL on a scribd page (https://www.scribd.com/doc/298463647/She-Loves-Me)
using this command: scribd-dl https://www.scribd.com/doc/298463647/She-Loves-Me
but I keep getting this error:

DevTools listening on ws://127.0.0.1:52702/devtools/browser/8db07dd0-447f-4390-b361-995020254a1d

I suspect that this DL is not uptodate with the latest chrome and sellelim. What is the best way to procede?

I know it's been two years but here's the solution I found in case someone gets here via Google : you need to download chromedriver and put it in a directory that is in your system's PATH.

However the download still fails with the same error as in issue #23
