KinoPoisk2 (Russian Movies) Scraper

[ababak]

Hi,

Let me present another KinoPoisk.ru scraper. It's a completely re-worked scraper Kinopoisk.ru with following features:

• Optimized regexps
• Low-res cover if no poster present (really helpful on some old movies)
• Artists' roles
• Can fetch movie stills fanart, wallpapers fanart, or both
• Fixed incorrect parsing of outline/plot

Download version 1.0 of KinoPoisk2 from here:

P.S. I'd like to thank spiff for his help!

I didn't check the source of the parser but as far as I can tell looking at the original scraper, it defines how the external URLs are parsed. Maybe it just does nothing though ;-) (or works in Plex only)

[spiff]

i know that it must be a plex thing as i wrote the scraper parser and most of the surrounding code

[ababak]

By the way, does the parser handle server encoding returned in headers? It would be great to make scraper completely UTF-8

[spiff]

scraper code does honor the encoding you set on the returned xml.

i guess the ServerContentEncoding is used to convert the html pages to utf-8 prior to passing them to the scrapers. i will dig in the plex git

edit: dug a bit. it's nonsense from the plex devs. the servercontentencoding is just a dupe of the encoding set on the returned xml

When xbmc load info from the site, Kinopoisk.ru ban me about 30 minutes. Because of what? At the Plex this does not happen.

I try to get info about the movie Butterfly effect (I type movie name in russian - "Эффект бабочки"). But the scraper returns me next list of movies:
==============
Интервью с вампиром
Сделка с дьяволом
Мадагаскар 2
Ирония судьбы. Продолжение.
Загадочная история Бенджамина Баттона
Суини Тодд,демон+парикмахер с Флит-стрит
==============
And I see the same list every time when I try to get info about any movie. Whats wrong?
Thanks.
PS. I made the screenshots, but I can't understand how to attach them here. But I can send them to anyone by e-mail.
