Incomplete SBS program listing

[Former user]

I'm trying to download Chasing the Moon from SBS. I click 2, Genre then 3 Documentary. The resulting list starts at 620, Krokodile Tears. Nothing from A to C. ABC Iview and 10 listings are correct. Using version delx-webdl-cb83a6fd378c. Thanks.

Hi. I guess your terminal is configured to have a scrollback buffer of only 1000 lines. There are currently 1618 SBS documentary items, plus one for the "Back" line and one more for the prompt. So this would explain why you don't see anything prior to 620.

You can either increase your terminal scrollback buffer, or use autograbber.py to download things.

Hope that helps :)

It could also have been a temporary SBS problem.

Two days ago, during the initial fetch, I was getting the error

Exception: ('Missing data in SBS response', {'f': {'response': {'message': 'Feed fetch error: This feed is limited to 1000 item(s).'}, 'status': 'failed'}})

The reporter’s problem may have been an evolution of this.
