[Bug]: ImportError when using enable_stealth=True #1481
Description
crawl4ai version
0.7.4
Expected Behavior
C4AI correctly imports playwright_stealth and applies the stealth scripts and headers to the context
Current Behavior
The crawler throws an ImportError: cannot import name 'Stealth' from 'playwright_stealth' (/Users/martin/test/.venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/playwright_stealth/init.py). Did you mean: 'stealth'?
Is this reproducible?
Yes
