I'm having a weird problem.

I first tried to pipe imdb json results to texturecache.py set and I get:

Code:

λ python texturecache.py imdb movies | python texturecache.py set
Traceback (most recent call last):.
  File "texturecache.py", line 8585, in <module>
    main(sys.argv[1:])

    movies250 = MyUtility.Top250MovieList()

    return opener.open(url, data, timeout)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\urllib2.py", line 435, in open
    response = meth(req, response)

    jdata = json.loads("".join(data))
  File "C:\Python27\lib\json\__init__.py", line 339, in loads
    return _default_decoder.decode(s)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\json\decoder.py", line 364, in decode
    obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())
  File "C:\Python27\lib\json\decoder.py", line 382, in raw_decode
    raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded")
ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded

But then tried to write to file and then read from it:

Code:

λ python texturecache.py imdb movies > imdb.dat

Code:

λ type imdb.dat | python texturecache.py set

And set worked as expected. Something wrong with pipe | ?!
