Hi guys,
Thanks for your feedbacks so far.
Again, what looks strange to me is that it really seams I'm the only one experiencing this issue...but I have tried over different machines and connections as well (the common thing is Windows 10, but I don't think it is the guilty...at least this time!)...sometimes the screaping reaches almost the end, sometimes is just a continuous exiting...hey, once I didn't have any issue!
@
olympia, yes, I have tried with and without nfo files as well as with different TV shows...the point is that the issue is just "random", that means is exactly related to the network connection status and speed...may be in this case a congested or low speed network helps in avoiding the problem. Of course I'm just brainstorming on this...anyway when the scraper exits, the log always reports error 429...
@
docwra you exactly reported what I mentioned in
post #155 above. Actually you referenced to something that was introduced in 2014 and that now foresees a limit of 40 requests every 10 seconds (take look to the page I linked). Of course, as you said, it would be great to have pyton scrapers to manage independently the requirements that the different sites impose; it is my understanding that Kodi use the same way to trigger the confirgured scraper so that we loose in same way the management of particular cases...Anyway, if from the debug log, the error 429 come out, that means Kodi is able to recognize it; would it then be possible to modify the code of Kodi to manage it? Another way could be just to set the scraping triggers in such a way that it would respect the most stringent requirements, i.e. to have no more than 40 requests every 10 seconds at a first rough instance (and have it refined in a second stage).
What do you think?
P.S.: Of course you are aware of that TMDB TV scraper is now the default TV scraper in the last Kodi 18 nightly builds............
