Issu with TheTVDB scraping with special characters in title?
#1
Hi all. I'm using Dharma RC1 (although this issue existed in previous Dharma releases), and I've noticed that when I scrape new TV shows (I manually Scan for new content) I seem to have issues for TV shows that have special characters in the Title. In my case, it's 'Go, Diego, Go!'.

When I scrape for new eps, the scraper returns empty details:

15:13:30 T:5212 M:1074954240 DEBUG: scraper: GetEpisodeDetails returned <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?><details></details>

For comparison, I scraped for a show that doesn't have special characters ('Little Einsteins'). The scraper seems fine with this (plot text removed for brevity):

15:13:22 T:11632 M:1069416448 DEBUG: scraper: GetEpisodeDetails returned <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?><details><plot>Quincy ... mission!</plot><title>Quincy and the Instrument Dinosaurs</title><season>2</season><episode>27</episode><thumb>http://thetvdb.com/banners/episodes/78978/401596.jpg</thumb><aired>2008-07-21</aired><rating>9.0</rating></details>

I may be barking up the wrong tree, but I've also tried scraping 'Dora the Explorer' eps with no issues.

Debug log for startup, manually scrape Little Einsteins then Go, Diego, Go!, then exit is at http://pastebin.com/CCMCFr4u

Thanks!
