is it possible to use --post-filter to exclude a post from a batch :saved download?

[0nobody0]

hello,

i ran into an issue that causes a :saved download - instaloader --login=[username] :saved --slide 1 --no-compress-json - to fail in the middle of the process: #2161 (comment)

is it possible to run instaloader using --post-filter to skip the post causing the error? perhaps using the shortcode property?

i tried instaloader --login=[username] :saved --slide 1 --no-compress-json --post-filter="shortcode!=[ShortCode]" but instaloader returned Invalid filter: [ShortCode] not a Post attribute.

any help is greatly appreciated

it looks like there may have been missing quotes around the shortcode. just tried instaloader --login=[username] :saved --slide 1 --no-compress-json --post-filter="shortcode!='[ShortCode]'" and it seems to be working, but it will be a while until it gets to the video that threw the original TypeError: expected string or bytes-like object, got 'NoneType'.
