iv been running into an issue with patreon mega files, it just downloads the thumbnails of the mega embed, how do i fix this? iv looked at other posts explaining how its fixed but i literally have no idea what it means, i feel iv just been doing this wrong my entire usage of this

how i use gallery dl is i make a .bat file in the same place gallery-dl is (my downloads folder) edit it to include the links of the things i wanna download, with a cookies file and it works sorta, but iv no idea how to fix this issue iv been having, i look at the thing for meta data ..stuff and my brain just falls apart as iv never seen anything relating to it, like whats the config file, whats anything

Mega is not a supported site, and downloading from external Patreon embeds is not supported either.

You can, however, write the content data of each Patreon post to an external file and process it afterwards yourself. To extract links, use the !R conversion.

    "extractor": {
        "patreon": {
            "postprocessors": {
                "name": "metadata@post",
                "filename": "{id}.txt",
                "filter": "content",
                "format": "{content!R:J\n}"
            }
        }
    }
}
