images do not load from some sites #199

Open ds33 opened 8 years ago

ds33 commented 8 years ago

Images won't load, or even show up, for IEEE Spectrum (http://feeds.feedburner.com/ieeeSpectrumFullText. If I set the feed to download full text, all the pictures just show as broken links (boxes with "img" in them). If I set it to not download full text, it comes through with a lot of garbage characters in place of images, captions, and links, making it very difficult to read. Embedded videos show up normally and will play without a problem. My other feeds don't seem to have any issue showing images, so I'm not sure what the issue is with this one.

This was mostly fixed in version 1.11.5 but is broken again in 1.11.6. 1.11.5 also appeared to fix the problem with not loading full articles I mentioned along with issue #200, but both are broken again in 1.11.6. I say "mostly" fixed with respect to the pictures, because while many of the articles from http://feeds.feedburner.com/ieeeSpectrumFullText started correctly loading photos, a few started showing a bunch of code instead (examples: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/IeeeSpectrumFullText/~3/MEib26k1JPg/can-you-program-ethics-into-a-selfdriving-car shows a bunch of code sections in place of photos, but http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/IeeeSpectrumFullText/~3/QWvr1QFQvnU/pothole-detection-for-the-visually-impaired loads photos fine in 1.11.5). However in 1.11.6 all the new articles in this feed are again loading with placeholders for photos.

Thanks.

1.11.7 (F-Droid), like 1.11.6 and 1.11.4, is still not properly loading images from http://feeds.feedburner.com/ieeeSpectrumFullText. I checked Flym for comparison and it is partially loading images from this feed (loads the first image, but not ones later in the article). 1.11.5 is also the only version I have loading full articles from http://www.nrdc.org/rss.xml, which seems to be counter to what I'm seeing in some of the closed issues about full content not loading. These also don't load in the current version of Flym. I've reverted to 1.11.5 since it's the only version working well for me. I'm using F-Droid builds on a Sony Xperia Z5 compact running Marshmallow, but I don't know if that affects any of this. Thanks.

This is still a problem, along with full content not loading, for me on 1.11.8, but working in 1.11.5.
