Recent SBS series missing

[Tinto Baggins]

Some recent SBS series are missing entirely, eg Asylum City (Drama) and Spiral S6,S7 (Drama).

Don’t know whether it will help, but I fixed the same problem by changing sbs.py, load_all_video_entries(self),
line 85:

from

    amount = 1000

to

    amount = 500

I also cannot find some SBS programs using grabber.py: Churchill (Biography) and Mary And Max (Animation). Both of these are films.

Reduce SBS page size (fixes #102)

I’ve reduced the page size from 1000 to 500 as that does seem to fix the problem.

A while ago I noticed that SBS would sometimes return duplicate results. I added a uniq set to detect and ignore these. It turns out that these duplicates only happen with large page sizes, and the duplicates are being returned instead of the missing shows.

Very weird… I’ve left the duplicate detection in there and now it’ll print a warning if it sees duplicates. This will hopefully catch any similar occurrence in the future.
