Hello everybody,
I have extended an existing plugin to get streams from sites that I like. Unfortunately, contrary to my local collection, those titles are of course not indexed by a scraper.
So what would be awesome is, if I have a common title like "show.title.S0XEYY.episode.name" I know the scraper could parse it to get the info. But I don't know how to get the scraper to scan it.
Now if someone would be willing to help me, this would be great. Of course, I do realize, that there will be a performance issue once I start doing this, since he would make such a lookup und every request I issue in my plugin.
So the second step would be to implement caching, i.e.: If the show with that title and that Season/Episode was already looked up, it should not update but take infos from local cache. Thus, only new shows get looked up.
Can anyone help me with step 1 (using the scraper in a plugin)? After this I will try to solve step 2 (local caching).
Thx for such a great software. I just love it!
