Media not downloading

I'm getting a lot of 0 bytes *.jpg.downloading files when running TBJAVA lately, plus a FLOOD_5 error everytime I download a single piece of media.
Did they change something server-side?

Can confirm this occuring for me too, but also for mp4, pdf and ogg files.
Strangely enough, between consecutive runs of telegram_backup this behavior sometimes does not appear and not every file seems to trigger it but the failing ones will need to be redownloaded and keep triggering th FLOOD error.

I'd use the built-in Export function, but unlike this nice piece of software, it just redownloads everything everytime.
With ~9GB of stuff, it's annoying.

Hello,
an idea here: could tgbackup download medias starting from the end?
Like check for presence in order, put missing files in a list, then download medias starting by the end of that list.
I've been trying to archive an account for days and so far I've only retrieved 5 files, the flood error appear from the first media, even after 1d or pause, even when continuously restarting tgbackup :/
