[BUG] - V5.0.0 user_example.py raises TikTokCaptchaError when calling user.videos

See original GitHub issue

Trying out the TikTokApi v5.0.0 user_example.py example on Windows 10 Python 3.9.7 , the call on line 8:

for video in user.videos():

raises a TikTokApi.exceptions.TikTokCaptchaError: TikTok blocks this request displaying a Captcha

I tried the example both initializing TikTokApi passing a custom_verify_fp value, and initializing with no parameters with the same result both times. I also tried use_test_endpoints=True and got the same result.

Anyone managed to make user.videos() work recently ?

I initially fixed this by using the custom_verify_fp option. It is still working for me. My problem right now, is how do you generate more custom_verify_fp tokens? TikTok is no longer sending a s_v_web_id cookie
