Alright guys, I understand this is frustrating, but lets try and keep things civil and give any words we read on the screen the benefit of the doubt. We all want the same thing, a working login for Soundcloud.
Unfortunately, I still have no update for you. I thought I was on to it, but seems like that was a dead end

There are two issues here
1) SC can detect a patched selenium webdriver, which removes the tell-tale signs it's an automated browser. I don't know how they do that.
1-0 Soundcloud
2) Soundcloud have added an encrypted routine for an HTTP request login. It basically uses various javascript metrics, which it then encrypts (well encodes really) with a string. However, I have this encoding routine understood and can generate the exact same values as the browser. This was the first issue a few weeks back. SC then changed some values, nothing drastic and everything looks roughly the same as it was before, just a couple of minor tweaks. However, the login doesn't work

There has be an issue with the inputs I am feeding into the routine, as if fed the same inputs the output is valid and matches the browser. However, my inputs all appear correct - I've been over them a 1000 times. Usually in instances like this, there is a glaring error somewhere that I am blindly missing, but I cannot see it this time.
Sorry, I know you were hoping for better news than this, but that's the current state of play.
