Dear Sam, I passed a bug fix yesterday at 4 pm CET time to fix these issues. I tried to run the Actor with the urls provided and I can't reproduce the errors you are experiencing. Maybe you have specified a language ? In such case, would you mind sending me the whole input please ?

Thanks for your reply, here is the simple python script I used to test and the associated error output in the screenshot. I just tested it today, and I have the same error.
