Problems with Importing PokerStars 6+ Hold'em hands

Pelorojo

Using hand2note for a while and it always worked fine for shortdeck games from PokerStars. Not sure what happend, but somehow it stopped working, my hands of my last session are missing.

Seems like PokerStars decided to replace some normal spaces with non-breaking spaces in their text files.

@keepcalm updated to v3.2.6.25: issue persists

I reinstalled h2n with the newest version, Hud is working now but hands dont get imported, neither auto nor manual.

This is only for short deck, NL works fine.

I reset game type to default, cleared and rebuild the stats, still nothing. Since the last pokerstars update no 6+ hands get imported.

same here

SomeRandomguy

btw does anyone have a pokerstars 6+ handhistory from before the update? I could make a script to change the format myself but I dont know what they looked like.

@SomeRandomguy The new files look exactly the same but there is a difference though: In the first line of every hand, the space between "Button Blind" and the blind value as well as between "Ante" and the ante value are now non-breaking spaces (UTF-8 encoding: C2 A0), before they were normal spaces. So, replacing these two spaces back to normal ones (UTF-8 encoding: 20) will fix it.

SomeRandomguy

thanks, but it didn't work. Neither replacing them by hand nor via script. I'm pretty sure my script works, it shows that those spots you mentioned are indeed non breaking spaces.
