48 row hard limit on results..?

Hi dear developer of the youtube shorts scraper!

I've been trying to scrape the data from this exact page:

https://www.youtube.com/@FitFixx/shorts

And the scraping works well, I receive a nice csv file with useful data, however I have the huge issue which is the fact that the scraper refuses to return me more than 48 rows of data.

Optimally I would prefer a dataset (CSV file) with 425 rows for 425 shorts, plus an optional header row.

I'm on the free trial version of the scraper, in case this is important context.

I'd really appreciate if you could help me out with this issue, because this data is essential for my detailed analysis of this channel and my social media plans at large.

I wish you a really nice rest of your day!

Hi lilsimon420! We are aware of this issue ( due to a recent bug the scraper is unable to extract more than 48 videos for shorts and 30 streams), and will be rolling out a fix just soon. I'll notify when this is done

Will it be within the next 5 days or so? Just curious because my free trial runs out in 6 days. (I really appreciate your prompt and clear response though!)

Hi. We've just merged the fixes. I've rebuilt the scraper and it should be fine now. I've tested on your input and here is a run with 425 results https://console.apify.com/view/runs/eKDfzpYTISlqkJnT9. Hope this fixes your problem!
