Constantly receiving Not solved while using fromdriver

[longinteger017]

The following keeps returning Not solved for me. I have never got any other return.

import selenium
from amazoncaptcha import AmazonCaptcha
from selenium import webdriver as webdriver

d = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
captcha = AmazonCaptcha.fromdriver(d)
print(captcha.solve(keep_logs=True))

not-solved-captcha.log:

Hi, just to clarify, everything works fine, but these 4 images, which you sent links for, are Not solved, right?

OR: do you receive Not solved not only for the images you sent, but just constantly?

Didn't get it, sry. Let me know, thanks!

Hi, sorry for my miscommunication.

As for me, the algorithm hasn't solved any captcha yet. I tried like 20 different times and all cases returned Not Solved.
It didn't work constantly. Never worked for me.

Do the 4 .jpg work for you?

These four links are working fine for me, I assume that the problem is connected to how captcha image is displayed in your browser (because fromdriver class method takes a screenshot and then crops the captcha image).

Try another class method - fromlink. This will use the captcha image link, therefore it will be not relevant how the image is displayed in the browser.

Here is the example with those four links:

from amazoncaptcha import AmazonCaptcha

links = [
    'https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/captcha/bfhuzdtn/Captcha_cebmxydbrt.jpg',
    'https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/captcha/perumqgc/Captcha_gaommpndkq.jpg',
    'https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/captcha/rhnrlggh/Captcha_tijaodpupx.jpg',
    'https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/captcha/bysppkyq/Captcha_xroxbnvmrg.jpg'
]

for link in links:    
    captcha = AmazonCaptcha.fromlink(link)
    print(captcha.solve())

So, in your code, when you are on the page with captcha, instead of using fromdriver, firstly extract the captcha image link and then use fromlink. Since it is the first img at the page, it is not obligatory to use BautifulSoup, but you can do the extraction your way. The main point is to just get the captcha link.

Here is the example of what I mean:

from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from amazoncaptcha import AmazonCaptcha
from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver.get('https://www.amazon.com/errors/validateCaptcha')

captcha_link = driver.page_source.split('<img src="')[1].split('">')[0]   # extract captcha link
captcha = AmazonCaptcha.fromlink(captcha_link)                            # pass it to `fromlink` class method
print(captcha.solve())

Perfect solution and explanation. Just tested it. Works like a charm.

Thank you very much!

No problems, have a great day!

This solution also worked for me! Thank You

I was hitting the same. @Dohzer43 @longinteger017 can you verify if you are using a high DPI monitor with DPI scaling?

In my case the problem seems to be that in fromdriver we do the following:

        location = element.location
        size = element.size
        left = location['x']
        top = location['y']
        right = location['x'] + size['width']
        bottom = location['y'] + size['height']

But because my monitor is configured for high dpi + dpi scaling, the coordinates were not matching to the PNG captured. Multiplying everything by 2, solved the issue.
