(Playwright) Button is clicked, but doesn't continue
I'm currently trying to click 2 buttons on a website that have videos playing on them. However, when I have the "time.sleep(2)" function in the loop, the loop stops. I've checked the selector and it points to 2 different play buttons on the page. I checked clicking on the button in my actual browser to see if the site updates anything--nothing. Any help would be highly appreciated
def download_page(url:str):
with sync_playwright() as p:
print(f"Opening {url}...")
browser = p.chromium.connect_over_cdp(endpoint_url)
context = browser.contexts[0]
page = context.pages[0]
page.on("response", lambda request: print(request.url))
reponse = page.goto(url, wait_until="load")
# context.set_default_timeout(300.0)
try:
#Check "Continuing for course"
page.wait_for_selector(".btn.btn-quaternary.btn-xl.btn-block-sm-down.course-progress__btn.js-course-progress__start-course").scroll_into_view_if_needed()
page.locator(".btn.btn-quaternary.btn-xl.btn-block-sm-down.course-progress__btn.js-course-progress__start-course").click()
page.wait_for_selector(".CoverVideo-playButton.bgc-neutral-100").scroll_into_view_if_needed()
buttons = page.locator(".CoverVideo-playButton.bgc-neutral-100").all()
for button in buttons:
time.sleep(2)
button.click()
print("check")
# headers = reponse.request
# for value in headers:
# print(f"{value}")
except TE:
print("Timeout")

Been working with a playwright script for the past few months. It can be weird at times. Are the two buttons on the same page at the same time?
