[BUG] SyntaxError: Invalid magic, got b'(DV\x07' #418
Description
Description
It looks like we've got a new VDF format rolling out for appinfo.vdf as part of the Steam Client Beta.
>>> from steam.utils.appcache import parse_appinfo
>>> header, apps = parse_appinfo(open(r"C:\Users\Winter\Desktop\WIP\appinfo.vdf", "rb"))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "D:\Python311_64\Lib\site-packages\steam\utils\appcache.py", line 71, in parse_appinfo
raise SyntaxError("Invalid magic, got %s" % repr(magic))
SyntaxError: Invalid magic, got b'(DV\x07'
Here's an example appinfo.vdf with this issue:
