HTTP 500 internal error when scraping some series #42

Open lopecillo opened 1 month ago

lopecillo commented 1 month ago

The scraper crashes with an HTTP 500 error from the server when trying to scrape some series. Please find attached the logs for a sample series:

Shin Chan (TvDB ID 79654)

Error Type: <class 'resources.lib.simple_requests.HTTPError'>
Error Contents: HTTPError: 500 for url: https://api4.thetvdb.com/v4/series/79654/extended

I think I know what an HTTP 500 error means (internal server error), but the data look totally fine when navigating the series with a browser, so I don't know what could be going on here.

As a reference, I've just tried with the The TVDB (new) add-on and scraping worked flawlessly. I'd bet that the API endpoint being used here is buggy :thinking:
