The error WinError 10061 (connection actively refused) with the traceback showing httpcore\_sync\http_proxy.py indicates that the connection to https://openrouter.ai/api/v1 is being routed through a proxy that is not reachable or not running.

Two likely causes:

  1. A proxy address is filled in the network proxy box (on the Alignment row), but the proxy service isn't running or the port is wrong — so the request gets refused at the proxy stage.
  2. OpenRouter is an overseas API; without a working proxy, direct access from mainland China will fail.

Solutions (in order):

  1. OpenRouter is an overseas service — it requires a working proxy/VPN.

    Ensure your proxy tool is actually running before starting a task.

  2. Check the proxy field: On the main interface, in the Alignment row, look at the proxy textbox on the right.

    • If it contains an address (e.g.

      http://127.0.0.1:10808), the proxy service must be running on that exact port.

      Wrong port / stopped service → 10061.
    • If you don't need a proxy, clear the box completely and save, then retry.
    • Correct format: http://127.0.0.1:port or socks5://127.0.0.1:port.
  3. Note on root_dir: E:/py video translator: your software path contains a space.

    While this usually doesn't cause a network error, the docs strongly recommend a pure English/no-space path (e.g.

    E:\pyVideoTrans).

    Consider moving it if other issues appear.
  4. If your proxy works for browsing but not here, try switching proxy modes (HTTP vs SOCKS5) or a different port, then restart the software.

Please refer to the relevant docs:
