Users of Myth Recording Extender: Parser updates required
|
|
When I checked I was pleasantly surprised to see over 100 downloads of
my MRE app, and since there were that many downloads I'll put this
message on the list.
ESPN has changed the URLs to their scoreboard pages - though initial
testing shows the page formats are the same. The old URLs, as stored
in the various event parsers, still work, but are _very_ slow in
responding, which leads to timeouts and all sorts of problems with
MRE. The quick fix is to change all the URLs in the event classes from:
http://sports.espn.go.com/...
to
http://scores.espn.go.com/...
You can either do this manually in each event class file or you can
grab the latest release of MRE, which is nothing more than changing
these URLs. Version 1.1.2 should be available from the project page
shortly (creating and uploading the tarball as I type).
A more elegant fix, including proper handling of the timeouts will be
a part of the next release of MRE, which is still being worked on and
will include other enhancements.
