From b5ba7b9dcfed5ded96c841a0ebbbf12132de838f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Smith Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2013 14:00:59 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Fix MIT extractor for Python 2.6 The HTML for the MIT page does not parse cleanly for Python 2.6 due to script tags within an actual script element. The offending piece is inside a comment block, so removing all such comment blocks fixes the parsing. --- youtube_dl/extractor/mit.py | 16 +++++++--------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/youtube_dl/extractor/mit.py b/youtube_dl/extractor/mit.py index d09d03e36..52be9232f 100644 --- a/youtube_dl/extractor/mit.py +++ b/youtube_dl/extractor/mit.py @@ -25,23 +25,21 @@ class TechTVMITIE(InfoExtractor): def _real_extract(self, url): mobj = re.match(self._VALID_URL, url) video_id = mobj.group('id') - webpage = self._download_webpage( + raw_page = self._download_webpage( 'http://techtv.mit.edu/videos/%s' % video_id, video_id) - embed_page = self._download_webpage( - 'http://techtv.mit.edu/embeds/%s/' % video_id, video_id, - note=u'Downloading embed page') + clean_page = re.compile(u'', re.S).sub(u'', raw_page) base_url = self._search_regex(r'ipadUrl: \'(.+?cloudfront.net/)', - embed_page, u'base url') - formats_json = self._search_regex(r'bitrates: (\[.+?\])', embed_page, + raw_page, u'base url') + formats_json = self._search_regex(r'bitrates: (\[.+?\])', raw_page, u'video formats') formats = json.loads(formats_json) formats = sorted(formats, key=lambda f: f['bitrate']) - title = get_element_by_id('edit-title', webpage) - description = clean_html(get_element_by_id('edit-description', webpage)) + title = get_element_by_id('edit-title', clean_page) + description = clean_html(get_element_by_id('edit-description', clean_page)) thumbnail = self._search_regex(r'playlist:.*?url: \'(.+?)\'', - embed_page, u'thumbnail', flags=re.DOTALL) + raw_page, u'thumbnail', flags=re.DOTALL) return {'id': video_id, 'title': title,
