Different encodings in one news source

[bubak]

I've got a news source that uses different encodings for different feeds and the automated detection does not get it right sometimes. Any ideas how to handle this? I read in the manual that 'encoding' can be callable with two arguments but I'm not sure what the 'source' as second argument means - feed source or article source? If it is downloaded article source, i can do something like source.decode(enc, 'replace'), however where do I get the current feed URL? Or is the second argument some article object?

For anyone who may be interested: The encoding function expects just one argument, source, the first one is the usual 'self' of Python. The url-dependent encoding can be done as follows:

    def encoding(self, source):
        if source.newurl.find('blog.aktualne') >= 0:
            enc = 'utf-8'
        else:
            enc = 'iso-8859-2'
        self.log.debug('Called encoding ' + enc + " " + str(source.newurl))
        return source.decode(enc, 'replace')
