There are some issues with the results displayed by the torrentHound plugin:
1) The names of the results in Torrent Search, using torrentHound plugin, include tags (when available), set in torrentHound, as a postfix, with no space between the tag and the last word of the actual name.
2) Not all results are displayed. In the example given below, after "Initialising...", I see "1/79", it starts displaying results and when it stops I get "64 result(s)".
3) Some of the names whose tags include an "/" between category-subcategory are displayed with about 4 empty rows beneath them.
For example, I type "eclipse fullmetal" and "Name contains:/" and I get:
[eclipse] fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood 53.aviAnime/ Full Metal Alchemist
[eclipse] fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood 53 [1280x720 h264] mkvAnime/ Full Metal Alchemist
etc...
I noticed that this happens with results whose dates are < 1st June 2010
1) and 2) were both encountered in the isoHunt issue so maybe its the same kind of problem.
For 3) there seems to be something wrong with the combination of a. use of "/" between category - subcategory and b. the results older than (1st - 9th) June 2010
(Windows Vista)
1) is the same kind of problem as with isohunt, shouldn't be too much trouble to fix
I think 2) and 3) might be related but I don't know exactly where the problem is yet
Actually, 1) and 2) were the same issue, and 3) was due to a mistake I made in date parsing, implying that the plugin was ignoring results with date in March.
Should work now.
The above issues seem fixed.
However the following keywords cause a behavior similar to 3) (rows above and below the name):
new
var
lang
array
search
color
background
When I look for any of the results these keywords give by a keyword different than the above, the result appears normally.
Not sure if there is something to be done about it, as those values are displayed on Torrent Hound as well.
Also, "torrent portal" gives only part of the results' names in Torrent Search than on torrentHound.
I uploaded a new version which should fix the empty lines issue. However, torrentHound seems to currently have some bugs in its output, so there may still be some weird things in the results in Torrent Search (for example, you can see things like {background-color:#DDFFDD} in the results list on torrentHound which is CSS code that should not be printed).
As for the differences with torrent portal, I don't think there's much I can do.
If torrentHound doesn't seem to give satisfying results, I may choose at some point to remove this plugin. Before that I'm going to try to contact them and report them the issues in their output and see if it changes.
Empty lines fixed.
Yes, contacting them is probably a good idea.
