Crawling brightcove videos #89

Open mattwelly opened 3 years ago

mattwelly commented 3 years ago

Hi there, I'm trying to crawl an education website that streams the videos using brightcove player. My crawling attempts keep timing out on pages and I end up with no video pages when I play it back.

Any suggestion on how this can be resolved?

Cheers

Hi, can you share an example page that has the issue, or another page that has this player?

mattwelly commented 3 years ago

sure, try this: https://www.tvnz.co.nz/shows/home-learning-tv/episodes/sage-12-15-e1

I'm not able to access that outside of NZ, so I'll need to try something else..
