Known Issues with Character Encoding

Which grabbers status will turn red if we add character encoding checks?

• tv_grab_ch_search data source sends windows-1252 as iso-8859-1 (e.g. Euro Symbol) Newer HTML readers are supposed to handle this correctly. Need to verify that we can dump perl strings at XMLTV::Writer and it will do the right thing with regard to escaping anything outside $encoding into XML entities.
• tv_grab_it stores category in utf-8
• tv_grab_se_swedb data source sends windows-1252 as iso-8859-1 (data source Viasat)
• #1910245 should add a test for HTML entities in the generated XML. (hint ´ is invalid XML!)

Issues with Time Zones

• #2483562 tv_grab_huro in netherlands

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)
  • #2910015 close it, was "no programs on channel 1", test_grabbers tests with that channel succesful

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.
