Known Issues with Character Encoding
Which grabbers status will turn red if we add character encoding checks?
- tv_grab_re writes iso-8859-1 header and programs but adds utf-8 encoded categories.
- #1910245 should add a test for HTML entities in the generated XML. (hint ´ is invalid XML!)
- #2756659 suggests HTML entities, too. It's 2010 after all, Unicode has landed and is here to stay!
Issues with Time Zones
- #2483562 tv_grab_huro in netherlands
- should add a test for implicit UTC vs. localtime (update grabbers to explicit UTC/offset and complain about missing time offset)
grab/test_grabbers; grep \<progr t_*.xml| grep -v \+| grep -v \-| wc -l
suggests that every grabber does write out explicit time offsets
Memory Leaks??
- #2612996 tv_grab_na_dtv dumps core on windows as .exe, grows quite as perl
Cleanup List
Feel free to take anything from the list
- #1880681 the bug was solved (not a bug), the suggestion for Supplementary Files is turning one can of worms into another...
- tv_grab_huro has no maintainer?
- #2748362 site changes: holes in the collected programs
- #2837668 site changes: unexpected hash references
- #2858285 close it, was "no channels found", the grabber does not fail completely anymore (see status)
- #2880092 close it, was "no programs at all", test_grabbers gets some programs
- #2910015 close it, was "no programs on channel 1", test_grabbers tests with that channel succesful
- #1938073 close it, XMLTVFormat doesn't allow floating time stamps! so shifting stuff around to please some local time is up to the consuming program. (better yet, just store everything in utc and add some intelligent local time handling... /rant)
You can also append a timezone to the end; if no explicit timezone is given, UTC is assumed.
Cleanup SourceForge Project
- remove group/status/category examples from the tracker (might check for other unused stuff while there)
Check for Breakage caused by LWP::Simple
- silent uncompression
- silent code page conversion
- silent proxy handling
Maybe it's best to move most uses over to our own Get_nice.
