If you are experiencing TimeoutException errors when trying to run Selenium in headless mode in PyCharm, there are several potential causes and solutions. Here are some steps to troubleshoot and address the issue:

1. Increase Wait Time:

   • Headless mode may introduce additional latency, and elements might take longer to load. Increase the timeout for explicit waits to give the elements enough time to become available.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)

# Increase the timeout as needed
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)

# Example wait for an element to be clickable
element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, 'your_locator')))

• Use Different Locator Strategies:

  • If one locator strategy is causing timeouts, try using a different one. For example, switch from By.ID to By.XPATH or vice versa.

• Verify Element Identification:

  • Confirm that the element locator used in your script is correct and uniquely identifies the intended element.

• Check for JavaScript Errors:

  • Open the browser console and check for any JavaScript errors that might be affecting the behavior of the page.

• Increase Browser Window Size:

  • Some websites may behave differently in headless mode based on the window size. Try setting a larger window size.

options.add_argument('--window-size=1920,1080')

• Update ChromeDriver:

  • Ensure that you are using the latest version of ChromeDriver that is compatible with your Chrome browser version.

• Use a Custom User Agent:

  • Some websites may behave differently based on the user agent. Try setting a custom user agent.

options.add_argument('--user-agent=Your_Custom_User_Agent')

• Check for Captchas or Additional Security Measures:

  • Some websites may use captchas or additional security measures that could cause delays. Ensure that your script is not encountering captchas.

• Browser Profile:

  • In some cases, the behavior of the browser may change when running in headless mode. Experiment with different browser profiles or use a clean profile.

• Network Issues:

  • Ensure that there are no network-related issues that might be causing delays in loading elements.

• Check Proxy Settings:

  • If you are using a proxy, ensure that the proxy settings are configured correctly for headless mode.

• Headless Mode Compatibility:

  • Some websites may have issues with headless mode due to user agent detection or other factors. Test your script on different websites to see if the issue persists.

It means a private proxy server used by several users. For example, one of them has bought a paid proxy and lets his friend use it for a fee. That is, he "shared" his proxy (shared means "common").

In video editing, the term "proxy" refers to the use of duplicate video with reduced resolution, which allows you to edit even on weak computers. The Adobe Premiere application itself does not allow you to set up a proxy connection.

If you want to check the proxy's regionality, use a tool such as the proxy checker. You can either download the program or use it online. To perform the check, which allows you to determine not only the country and city, but also a number of other important indicators, you need to enter your username and password in the appropriate fields.

In AnyDesk, in order to ensure maximum security of transmitted traffic, you can use proxies, including encryption of traffic. The setting is made through the regular menu of the application. You will need to go to "Options", select "Connection", specify the proxy and port number. Connection is made automatically after that.
