NY Times video captions

jfhutson · 01-28-2017, 07:13 PM

I have another minor request for the NYT recipe. The recipe strips out the videos, but not the captions. I think you need the remove the "caption-video" div class.

Not my recipe but I'd guess the recipe author left those in deliberately so you know there is a video there in the original and what the video was about. In any case you can always customize your local copy of th erecipe to remove those if you want.

I don't see them as helpful (you'll notice in print mode the website leaves them out). I figured out how to remove them, if anyone else is interested. In addition to adding 'caption-video' to 'remove-tags', I needed to add the following 'dict(name='h4', attrs={'class': 'headline'})' to get rid of an extra headline that was showing up. My code is here: https://github.com/jfhutson/calibre-...ter/nyt.recipe (with several other modifications).
