JSONDecodeError that I can't get around

[Spazzery]

Firstly, thank you for creating this tool, I've used it in the past and it worked great!

However, I've been trying for an hour, with different downloads and executables and even managed to sign in into echo (previously I used my school environment that linked to Echo (must've created a token or something) that got access to the videos), but now, whatever I do, I get a JSONDecodeError. Maybe they've updated Echo360 recently or something? I can't tell what the issue is.

The error:

Thanks for your kind word!

I haven't touched on this code for a while now, but as a starter, perhaps first run it --debug flag to see what it outputs
