Jackett: [Blutopia] Some Search Issues

[HDVinnie]

For instance, Jackett currently finds no torrents for:

game of thrones S01 remux

Searching game of thrones S01 remux directly on Blutopia website however returns two results.

Game of Thrones S01 2160p UHD BluRay REMUX HDR HEVC Atmos-EPSiLON
Game of Thrones S01 1080p Hybrid Remux AVC TrueHD 7.1-BiZKiT

Searching just "game of thrones" in Jackett nets the expected amount of results (76 specifically) in Jackett which matches Blutopia.

I don't have an a/c on blutopia so I cannot help with this one.
looks like its invitations only, because I'm not going to pass all the i'm an enthusiastic sharer hoop juimping for the regular registration.

If you send an invite to garfieldsixtynine @ gmail.com I can take a look, otherwise it will have to wait for another volunteer to investigate.

Tests:

• Remove $raw: "{{ range .Categories }}categories[]={{.}}&{{end}}" => works but no category filter
• Test in postman, send field search=game%20of%20thrones%20S01%20remux&categories[]=2 => works
• Test in postman, send field search=game%20of%20thrones%20S01%20remux&categories[]=2,3 => works

• Test in postman, send field search=game%20of%20thrones%20S01%20remux&categories[]= => don't work

@garfield69 I have sent a invite. I should also note Blutopia does offer a API for searching torrents. Not sure if could be of use.

its the use of a capital S01 in the search request.

But its a case of a perfect storm.

TLDR;

combo of
(a) Blutopia name search season position, which works when S08 is in the middle of the name search but not when it is at the end
along with
(b) Jackett ?Cardigann? changing the keyword order when capital S08 is used (shifting it to the end of the keyword list), but not when lowercase s08 (which remains in place).

more details:

1. it appears that Blutopia name search is positional depended, when it comes to season in the name.
   for example, on the Blutopia website, searching name game of thrones S08 1080p remux yields 1 result Game of Thrones S08 1080p BluRay REMUX AVC Atmos-EPSiLON
   but searching for name game of thrones 1080p remux S08 yields no results.

2. the URL generated by cardigann is different when lowercase s08 is used as opposed to uppercase S08
   (a) Jackett search for lowercase game of thrones s08 1080p remux returns expected result, with the URL generated being https://blutopia.xyz/torrents/filter?search=game+of+thrones+s08+1080p+remux&description=&uploader=&imdb=&tvdb=&tmdb=&mal=&igdb=&sorting=created_at&sort=created_at&direction=desc&qty=100

(b) Jackett search for uppercase game of thrones S08 1080p remux returns nothing, the URL generated is https://blutopia.xyz/torrents/filter?search=game+of+thrones++1080p+remux+S08&description=&uploader=&imdb=&tvdb=&tmdb=&mal=&igdb=&sorting=created_at&sort=created_at&direction=desc&qty=100

note the uppercase S08 in the URL has been shifted to the end of the search= parm. WTF?

Is Cardigann changing the order of the keywords? I don't know, that is a question for a C# dev to examine and answer. Beyond my skills to analyse.

more investigation required. C# dev invited.

First off, if someone needs access to Blutopia, their application signup is currently open:
https://blutopia.xyz/application

Secondly, @garfield69 BeyondHD has a very similar issue. If you enter the movie/TV show's name, it will return the correct results. Once you enter things like resolution, release group, REMUX, etc, it'll return nothing. 3 things worth mentioning here:

1. This happens sometimes, not always. I can't figure out why.
2. Sometimes this also happens on BHD's website
3. We've had this issue with BHD in the past
   https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett/issues/835
   https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett/issues/4828

However, back then BHD ran on a different platform and had a completely different design. It seems like this issue is back again now with the new design.

[HDVinnie]

This is a problem with UNIT3D. I will be refactoring the search engine. As for BHD they are using a fork of UNIT3D they have modified. I just tested and they indeed still have same issue . So I suggest you will have to contact them regarding their site seeing they dont keep up to date with UNIT3D core. Im going to be starting the new search system this weekend so all UNIT3D sites that keep up to date with UNIT3D should be good soon.

@HDVinnie I'm facing a similar issue. If I try to search for Cheers S01 1080p, Blutopia doesn't return anything in Jackett but does return 2 results when searching the website.

However, if I remove 1080p, Jackett returns the 2 relevant results.

Any progress on this issue, @HDVinnie?

Hello,

Similar experiences here but I am not sure if this is related to the above. Blutopia had been working fine for me but currently it spams with lots of unwanted results every time I search using Sonarr.

As an example, in the Jackett web interface if I search for "Blackadder S01", it returns a correct result from Blutopia - just a single dvd remux for that season. Doing the interactive season search via Sonarr shows the following query in Jackett logs:

Fetching: https://blutopia.xyz/torrents/filter?categories[]=2&categories[]=6&search=S01&description=&uploader=&imdb=&tvdb=76736&tmdb=&mal=&igdb=&sorting=created_at&sort=created_at&direction=desc&qty=100

It is searching using TVDB id, and name of "S01". The result is Sonarr lists many many results, anything matching "S01" as this param overrides the TVDB id in Blutopia. Using just the TVDB id by itself shows only results related to Blackadder, which would be more preferable, but I have no way to make this happen.

TMDB IDs are primary on BLU with IMDB IDs being secondary. I would not rely on searching ONLY by TVDB IDs. However why it is removing Blackadder from search is beyond me. UNIT3D still needs a large search system refactor which I know I said I was starting awhile back. However it was halted due to more important issues and looking into new search technologies.
