Plugin.video.themoviedb.helper: Problem with special characters (french language)

Created on 1 Nov 2020  路  5Comments  路  Source: jurialmunkey/plugin.video.themoviedb.helper

Hi @jurialmunkey

Is it possible that since the latest developments of TheMovieDb Helper, the addon no longer supports accented characters in the French language?

I have that kind of error:
Error Type: <type 'exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError'> Error Contents: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe8' in position 169: ordinal not in range(128) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.themoviedb.helper/plugin.py", line 9, in <module> Container().router()

Here is my log file attached if it can help

Thank you for all good work :)
Kodi 18.9
Nvidia Shield
TheMovieDb Helper 4.0.26
Skin Arctic Horizon 0.5.50

EDIT: I updated to the v4.0.28 of TheMovieDv Helper since I wrote this issue but unfortunately, it's the same

It's seems to be all good for me now :)
I can use player functions with all movies with accented characters, open Trackt section and tmdb lists :)

Thanks a lot!!!

I was wondering when some of these errors with accented characters would crop up!

Can you test latest git version? I've fixed the ones I could find but I'm not sure if there's others I've missed.

Hi again, thanks for the fix and the quick reply !

It seems that the biggest problems are with trakt.
And I can no longer use my player on widget of home screen when movie title have special characters too...

Here is my new log :)

Thanks for the log, it was very useful!

Can you try with v4.0.30 (latest)? I've fixed the MPAA issue. I wasn't able to recreate the playback error though - hopefully I've fixed it.

Excellent! Thanks so much for testing.

Yes, please let me know if any other special character errors crop up - hopefully I've got them all but I wouldn't be surprised if there's still a few lurking around!
