Appreciation

First , i want to say great work you have done here , i understand little bit of python and i can tell how much effort you put in it , so thank you i really appreciate what you did , because i spent a lot of time searching about new scripts that works nicely , and i was so happy when is found this , and "2 days ago" sign made my day .

Problem

note : I'm using no watermark option .
so the script works fine but it stopped at certain amount of videos like 33 videos or less and i get this error message ;

File "/home/user/Documents/tiktok-bulk-downloader/tiktok_dl.py", line 387, in <module>
    main(args)
  File "/home/user/Documents/tiktok-bulk-downloader/tiktok_dl.py", line 381, in main
    download_posts(json_data["posts"], args.no_watermark)
  File "/home/user/Documents/tiktok-bulk-downloader/tiktok_dl.py", line 355, in download_posts
    nw_url(driver, base_url, post["id"]) if no_watermark else post["video"],
  File "/home/user/Documents/tiktok-bulk-downloader/tiktok_dl.py", line 316, in nw_url
    downloads = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
  File "/home/user/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/support/wait.py", line 80, in until
    raise TimeoutException(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message: 
Screenshot: available via screen

So i did little research and i found that maybe its the loading time of page which seems logic since it happens using regular browser , so i increased the waiting time 30 sec then 60 , then 100 WebDriverWait(driver, 100) and same error appears again but after downloading like 74 video out of 290 or 408 .

• is my connection slow ? so that i get this problem ( the download is fine like : 1.2 / 1.5 MB/sec ) .
• is it worked for you like 100% download out of like 290 videos ? if it so how much connection speed you test it out ?
• is there a js anti bot script that blocking the process on the tiktok ?

Proposal

since it stopped at 74 videos can you make the script more dynamic like i can run it again and start from video number 76 , like which line of code the loop is for edit the i is ( which you don't use i think ) . i see that maybe a temporary solution , but it can be the same error since the phantomjs is gonna scroll the hole page again .
So i hope the solution is simple , thank you .

TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "NoneType") to str

It shows typeerror on the line 50

secUid error returned. Can you add more documentation please on project setup!

It doesn't seem to work anymore, at least not on my system

I had used this once before and it worked flawlessly but then tried later on a few days later and it didn't work, instead giving me this. Ignore the user I tried it on, just did that for shits and giggles.
