Issue enabling wire=True in SeleniumBase – driver.requests missing

[benfrankie]

Hi there! I’m trying to intercept network requests (e.g. .mp3 URLs for an audio CAPTCHA solver) while also using undetected Chrome. I attempted:

with SB(uc=True, wire=True, headless=False) as sb:

but sb.driver.requests isn’t available. What’s the correct way to combine the wire=True flag with uc=True so that sb.driver is a selenium‑wire instance? Or is there another recommended pattern to get both undetectability and request interception in SeleniumBase?

Thanks!

I'm trying to solve a Captcha F​ o​ x audio CAPTCHA using SB(uc=True, test=True) with activate_cdp_mode().

1. After calling sb.activate_cdp_mode("about:blank"), the browser goes to a blank page or loses connection before navigation even happens (even when I use sb.uc_open_with_reconnect(...) right after).

2. When I manually navigate to the page, and the audio plays, the MP3 URL is never captured — even though I’ve registered a Network.requestWillBeSent listener.

I’ve verified the audio is playing, but No MP3 request intercepted yet still appears in my logs. Is this a limitation of UC/CDP Mode on media streams? Or am I missing a timing or activation step to reliably capture network requests (especially .mp3) from the CaptchaFox widget?

Any insight on both the blank page issue and how to reliably intercept audio file requests would be appreciated.
